The Beauty Queen of Leenane

Written by Martin McDonagh
and directed by Joan Moriarty

Performed at Heidelberg Theatre from
8th JULY – 23rd JULY, 2022

Set in the deceptively idyllic, west Irish countryside, this is a darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a lonely spinster in her early forties, and Mag, her devious ageing mother. Mag’s interference in her daughter’s first and only chance of love starts a chain of events that lead inexorably to a tragic result.

This powerful work from Martin McDonagh won the 1998 Drama League Award for Best Play and the 1998 Outer Critics Circle Award Best Broadway Play.
