The Beauty Queen Of Leenane

By Martin McDonagh

Directed by Michael Tonner

Set in the mountains of Connemara, County Galway, Ireland, The Beauty Queen Of Leenane tells the darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a plain and lonely woman, and Mag, her manipulative aging mother, whose interference in Maureen’s first and possibly final chance of a loving relationship sets in motion a train of events that leads inexorably towards the play’s terrifying dénouement.
