OVERVIEW
“If Monty Python has ever tackled the issue of Irish terrorism, they might have created something as wild, as brilliant and as weirdly exhilarating as The Lieutenant of Inishmore.”
- NY Daily News
Olivier Award-winner Martin McDonagh (The Pillowman) makes comedy from carnage in this highly theatrical — and unapologetically bloody — romp.
He’s clever, devilishly rakish and, when he’s not torturing his enemies, the Lieutenant is a lover of cats. It’s this sliver of humanity — juxtaposed against the cold, cruel circumstances of political terrorism — that drives this play to its wicked depths.
Critics raved and gasped over this 2006 Tony Award® Best Play nominee. You can decide for yourself when the original Broadway director stages this daring and disturbingly intoxicating dark comedy.
