Theatre Discipline Lead: Shannon Kearns

Set in the mountains of Ireland, The Beauty Queen of Leenane tells the darkly comic tale of a plain and lonely woman, and her manipulative ageing mother, whose interference in her daughter’s first and potentially last loving relationship sets in motion a train of events that is as gothically funny as it is horrific. As the play develops, the two women lock horns until scores are settled.

"With dark and mysterious plot twists, The Beauty Queen of Leenane will have audiences laughing aloud one moment and covering their mouths in stunned silence the next." (New York Post)
