Dancing At Lughnasa
Fri 24 May - Sat 15 June
By Brian Friel
Director Richard Beecham
Rural Donegal, 1936. The Mundy sisters cry, laugh and dance together, at a time when life is simple but making ends meet seems impossibly hard.
During a summer when their missionary brother returns from Africa a changed man and the Mundy’s are gifted their first wireless radio, relationships are tested, social conventions challenged and the doctrines of the church clash with the spirit of a Pagan past. Dreams of love crumble as dusk sets on the life the sisters knew.
Told through the eyes of seven-year old Michael, Brian Friel’s Olivier and Tony award winning play is a magical, moving, memory-story filled with humour, tenderness and the longing of unfulfilled lives.
Richard Beecham returns to Royal & Derngate to direct after his critically acclaimed productions of Terrence Rattigan’s In Praise of Love and Charlotte Jones’ Humble Boy.
