The Playboy of the Western World
Theater
Written by John Millington Synge
Directed by Mark Mallecoccio
The Playboy of the Western World is a comedic romp through turn-of-the-century Ireland, written by J.M. Synge. Set in Michael James Flaherty’s public house it tells the story of Christy Mahon, a young man running away from his farm, claiming he killed his father. The locals are more interested in vicariously enjoying his story than In condemning the immorality of his murderous deed, and in fact, Christy’s tale captures the romantic attention of the bar-maid Pegeen Mike, the daughter of Flaherty.
