Irish National Dramatic Society, company founded by Frank and W. G.
Fay, which in 1902 produced AE's
Deirdre,
Yeats and Lady
Gregory's Cathleen ni Houlihan and
The Pot of Broth, and four other plays, including one in Gaelic. These were given in small halls in Dublin, but in 1903 and 1904 the company appeared in a larger hall, where, as the National Theatre Society, they were seen in Yeats's
The Hour-Glass,
The King's Threshold, and
The Shadowy Waters, as well as in Lady Gregory's
Twenty-Five,
Synge's In the Shadow of the Glen and
Riders to the Sea, and Padraic
Colum's Broken Soil. The company was invited to London in 1903, appearing there in two performances of five short plays each. It is believed that these productions finally decided Miss
Horniman to finance the
Abbey Theatre. In 1904 an Ulster branch of the society was formed with the support of the parent company, whose members took part in an initial production of
Cathleen ni Houlihan. This group merged with the
Ulster Group Theatre in 1939.
