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 in her early forties, 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.

Announcing Our Replacement Shows!
We are happy to announce the shows with which we will be closing our 2024-2025 season.
In the slot that was The Sunshine Boys, we will be presenting Whose Wives Are They Anyway?, by Michael Parker. It will play March 21 through April 6.
In the Birthday Candles slot, we will be presenting Fireflies, by Matthew Barber, from the novel Eleanor and Abel by Annette Sanford. It will play May 2 through 18.
A cast announcement for Whose Wives Are They Anyway? will be coming soon.
Fireflies was in tech week in 2020 when it was canceled due to COVID. We are thrilled that the original cast of the 2020 production will be returning in their roles for this "revival".
Show pages for these productions will be coming soon, so check back!
