Táto dramatická sága sa ponára do temných zákutí ľudskej psychiky a rodinných vzťahov zasadených do drsnej krajiny západného Írska. Séria skúma zložitosť lásky, posadnutosti a manipulácie s mrazivým realizmom. Každý príbeh odhaľuje zdrvujúcu pravdu o živote na okraji spoločnosti, kde sa túžba po spojení stretáva s deštruktívnou silou minulosti. Je to prenikavé a znepokojujúce zobrazenie, ktoré zanecháva trvalý dojem.
Set in the mountains of Connemara, County Galway, The Beauty Queen of Leenane tells the darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a plain and lonely woman in her early forties, 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 denouement
The second in McDonagh's Connemara trilogy of plays. Mick Dowd is hired annually to disinter the bones in certain sections of his local cemetery, in order to make way for the new arrivals. As the time comes for him to dig up those of his own late wife, strange rumours also resurface.
One of McDonagh's Connemara trilogy of plays. Two brothers living in their father's house after his recent death, find it practically impossible to exist without violent disputes over the most mundane and innocent of topics. Only Father Welsh, the young local priest, bids for reconciliation.
While still in his twenties, the Anglo-Irish playwright Martin McDonagh has filled houses in London and New York, ranked in the most prestigious drama awards.
