NT Live - “The Playboy of the Western World”

Nicola Coughlan joins Éanna Hardwicke and Siobhán McSweeney in John Millington Synge’s riveting play of youth and self-discovery, set in the West of Ireland. Pegeen Flaherty’s life is turned upside down when a young man walks into her pub claiming that he’s killed his father. Instead of being shunned, the killer becomes a local hero and begins to win hearts, that is until a second man unexpectedly arrives on the scene… Directed by Caitríona McLaughlin Full details and how to book tickets are at NT Live — Penallt Village Website . Please note that this is the second showing of The Playboy of the Western World, the first being on Wednesday 12th August.
