Brilliantly Subversive
“McDonagh re-creates traditional Irish family drama only to set it ablaze with a postmodern blowtorch.” -- Charles McNulty, Los Angeles Times
A darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a plain and lonely woman in her early 40s, and Mag, her manipulative, aging mother, whose interference in Maureen's first and potentially last loving relationship sets in motion a chain of events that are as tragically funny as they are horrific. Garry Hynes, who won a Tony Award® for her direction of The Beauty Queen of Leenane on Broadway, revisits this black comedy by Martin McDonagh (The Lieutenant of Inishmore) with the renowned Druid theatre company.
“An outstanding production that’s as witty as it is shocking.” -- Jordan Riefe, -- The Hollywood Reporter
“Spellbinding, Terrifying” -- The Observer
