The Seafarer
Actors Theatre presents Conor McPherson’sThe Seafarer
A Co-Production with Unicorn Theatre
October 20 – November 7, 2010
Unicorn Theatre’s Jerome Stage
It’s Christmas Eve, and Sharky has returned to Dublin to look after his quick-tempered, aging and recently blind brother. Old drinking buddies Ian and Nicky are holed up at the house too, hoping to play cards when a mysterious, charming stranger raises the stakes even higher. Sharky may be playing for his very soul in this darkly funning an chilling new play about Ireland, the sea and the power of myth.
