The Drama League of Ireland Lending Library

is available at the Mill Theatre, Dundrum, Dublin 16.

We have an extensive selection of single copies of contemporary plays and a large collection of Irish playwrights from the nineteenth and twentieth century.  We have recently acquired a fine selection of New Irish Writing.

  • Plays – full length sets. One act plays.
  • Biographies
  • Critical works
  • Technical Theatre books

We can offer our catalogue of plays on line and are continually updating our catalogue, currently adding our technical theatre books and biographies.

Through our partnership with the Drama Association of Wales, we have access to the largest specialist drama lending library in the world. A stock of more than 300,000 volumes is available to us,  so if you are looking for a play that is out of print or alternately seen a production of a new and interesting play, we may be able to help.

The library catalogue has been updated. Download the new Catalogue.
