An Enthralling New Comedy-Drama
The Seafarer
By Conor McPherson
Directed by Gregory Boyd
Hubbard Stage
April 14 – May 5, 2012
Explicit language, adult situations.

It's Christmas Eve and Sharky has returned to Dublin to look after his irascible, ageing brother who's recently gone blind. Old drinking buddies Ivan and Nicky are holed up at the house too, hoping to play some cards. But with the arrival of a stranger from the distant past, the stakes are raised ever higher. In fact, Sharky may be playing for his very soul . . .
“Shines in a world gone adrift” - Chicago Tribune

Conor McPherson (The Weir, Shining City) follows last summer’s Alley debut (St. Nicholas) with this powerful, funny, unsettling tale.
