Born in Dundalk, he was educated at the College of Art in Dublin, worked as a customs officer 1945–47, and then at the Abbey Theatre as a producer of Irish language plays, subsequently becoming Artistic Adviser to the Board in 1966, then Artistic Director 1972–79 and 1984–85. His work as an innovative stage director was crucial in modernizing the Abbey style after its re-opening in 1966. He directed Borstal Boy, which after its transfer to New York, won the Tony Award for Best Play and earned him a nomination for Best Direction of a Play at the 24th Tony Awards in 1970.[1] He co-wrote the Irish pantomimes for years. Amongst his original plays are Winter Wedding (1956), Dear Edward (1973), Scéal Scéalaí (1977), and Glittering Spears (1983), a drama-documentary on O'Casey's The Silver Tassie. He died in Bray, County Wicklow, aged 84[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|last1=Pine|first1=Richard|title=Tomás Mac Anna obituary|url=https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2011/jul/10/tomas-mac-anna-obituary|accessdate=31 July 2017|work=The Guardian|date=10 July 2011}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2010/0301/1224265373043.html|title=Tómas MacAnna is given special tribute at 'Irish Times' Irish Theatre Awards|work=Irish Times|accessdate=31 July 2017|date=3 January 2010}} External links
