The Seafarer

By Conor McPherson






Directed by Brendan Burke

It’s Dublin, Ireland on Christmas Eve and four old friends gather for a night of poker and drink. But when a stranger arrives and joins the game- a man’s very soul is in the pot and up for grabs...

This award-winning and epic Faustian fable of a drunken Christmas Eve has all the earmarks of its talented playwright. Witty dialogue, fascinating characters and a supernatural twist are mixed to create this hilarious and haunting cocktail that earned Tony and Olivier Award nominations for Best Play.



“The liveliest, funniest dialogue yet written by the prodigiously gifted Mr. McPherson...he’s considering the impenetrable, scary mystery that is being alive and the blundering ways that poor human beings deal with it...But as unlikely as it sounds, THE SEAFARER may just be the pick-me-up play of the season.”
...... - New York Times



“The best Irish play since the glory days of Samuel Beckett.”
...... - Chicago Tribune
