THE PLAYBOY OF THE WESTERN WORLD
At the edge of the earth, you could be anyone
June 9, 2026
Pegeen Flaherty’s life is turned upside down when, on a normal day, a young man walks into her pub claiming that he’s killed his father. Instead of being shunned, the killer Christy Mahon becomes a local hero. The welcome murderer wins hearts and races as he beds himself into village life. That is, until a second man unexpectedly arrives on the scene… Caitríona McLaughlin (Artistic Director of the Abbey Theatre, Dublin) directs Nicola Coughlan (Bridgerton), Éanna Hardwicke (The Sixth Commandment), and Siobhán McSweeney (Derry Girls) in John Millington Synge’s riveting story of youth and self-discovery. Approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes with one 20-minute interval.
