Nick Drake has written two published plays. Romulus, My Father (2007) adapts Raimond Gaita’s memoir about growing up in rural Australia with his Romanian-born father. It is a story about displacement and belonging.
All the Angels (2016) takes a very different subject, dramatizing the events leading up to the premiere of Handel’s Messiah in Dublin. Both plays show Drake’s ability to bring historical material to life on the stage, a skill that carries over from his Rai Rahotep novels.
