Shining City

by Conor McPherson
Directed by Robert Falls

3/7/2008 — 4/6/2008
BU Theatre - Mainstage

A struggling Dublin therapist treats a man haunted by the ghost of his recently deceased wife, while at the same time his own relationship teeters on the brink. This beautifully written psychological mystery was on every list of Broadway's best in 2006. Original Broadway director Robert Ralls returns to restage this production, presented in association with Chicago's acclaimed Goodman Theatre.

Irish playwright Conor McPherson took London and Broadway by storm with the critically acclaimed Shining City, whcih was nominated for three Tony Awards including Best Play. His other plays include The Seafarer, The Weir, Rum & Vodka, The Good Thief, This Lime Tree Bower, St. Nicholas, and Dublin Carol, and his many awards include the Olivier Award for best New Play, the Evening Standard award, and the London Critics' Circle Award.

"Haunting, inspired, and absolutely glorious. As close to perfection as contemporary playwriting gets."The New York Times
