PLAYBOY OF THE WESTERN WORLD
by John Millington Synge
A young man wanders into a pub on the rural coast of Ireland and tells the tale of how he killed his father with a spade. His story thrills the women of the village, especially the lovely bar-maid, Pegeen.
But then his dad turns up, very much alive, and the son will have to kill him all over again. This lovely wacky play caused riots in Dublin when it first premiered in 1907. Now it’s a bona fide classic, but just as fresh as ever in the exuberant and talented hands of our UCCS students.
