Part of the Synge Festival celebrating one of Ireland's finest writers, J.M. Synge. "The Playboy of the Western World" is the story of a young man who walks into a rural tavern and declares that he has murdered his abusive father in self-defense. He is beloved by the locals and heralded as a hero until the truth of his past is revealed. A riotous comedy, J.M. Synge's timely tale looks at the power of personality over facts, challenges the wisdom of popular opinion, and asks us what separates criminality from heroism.
