Tense, smouldering drama
combined with black comedy

Written by one of Ireland's most successful contemporary playwrights, this is the last of the 'Leenane Trilogy' and follows on from our award-winning productions of The Beauty Queen of Leenane' and 'A Skull in Connemara'. The story focuses on Valene and his smouldering volcano of a brother Coleman who represent a modern-day Cain and Abel. Their past and present grievances are expressed in daily bickering that at times explodes into their wrestling each other to the ground in deadly combat. We also meet Father Welsh, and Girleen, first mentioned in 'Beauty Queen'.
