Brian Friel’s Olivier award-winning play, a
bittersweet reflection of rural Ireland in the thirties on the brink of
industrialisation, returns to London for the first major revival since
its premiere nearly 20 years ago.
Friel’s passionate portrait of the five Mundy sisters follows their
loss of love and opportunity played out against the echoes of the
twentieth century with a dark humour, raw energy and tenderness.
Anna Mackmin directs an outstanding cast: Andrea Corr, Niamh
Cusack, Michelle Fairley, Simone Kirby, Finbar Lynch, Susan Lynch, Peter
McDonald and Jo Stone-Fewings in this vital, life-affirming play in The
Old Vic's in-the-round CQS Space.

playwright, his plays include Aristocrats, Molly Sweeney,
Philadelphia Here I Come, Faith Healer, The Home Place and
Translations.

Gabler at The Gate Theatre, Dublin and her previous directorial
