Set in the mountains of Connemara, County Galway, Featuring Derdriu Ring*, Anne McEvoy, Tom Woodward*, and Nate Miller, The Beauty Queen of Leenane tells the darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a plain and lonely woman, 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.

"THE BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE...is clearly the product of a major writer. Indeed, on the basis of this play alone, I am willing to make the rash claim that McDonagh is destined to be one of the theatrical luminaries of the twenty-first century." -New Republic.
