Synopsis

“There’s no dark like a winter night in the country. And there was a wind like this one tonight, howling and whistling in off the sea...It was this type of night now. Am I setting the scene for you?”

In Brendan’s pub, isolated above the town, the men are gathering for their daily pint. The arrival of a stranger in their midst – a woman - spurs them to impress her with stories. They are stories of souls past and of spirits very much present. But one story is more chilling and more real than any of the men could have foreseen.

On its première in 1997, The Weir won the Evening Standard, Critics’ Circle and Olivier Awards for Best New Play, and established McPherson’s place as one of our greatest living playwrights. Josie Rourke’s production marks the first major British revival of this undoubted modern classic.

STANDING TICKETS FOR THE WEIR ARE AVAILABLE IN PERSON FROM THE BOX OFFICE ON THE DAY OF PERFORMANCE.
