THE BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE
By Martin McDonagh
Directed by Kathryn MacMillan
January 10 - February 10, 2013
Our final production in Martin McDonagh's Leenane Trilogy, The Beauty Queen of Leenane is a wildly funny and deeply affecting satire of the skirmishes and silent feuds between mothers and daughters. In a small town in western Ireland, spinster Maureen Folan lives with her diabolically helpless mother Mag. Maureen's married sisters escaped long ago, leaving Maureen stuck at home, chafing against Mag's cunning manipulations and lamenting her missed chances. When romance blossoms between Maureen and the sweet, uncomplicated Pato Dooley, it pits mother against daughter, setting the stage for an explosive finish.
