The Beauty Queen of Leenane

Forbhreathnú

  • Drámadóir

    Martin McDonagh 

  • Suíomh

    The play is set in Leenane, a small town in Connemara, County Galway.

  • Nótaí

    The Beauty Queen of Leenane was subsequently restaged alongside the premieres of 'A Skull in Connemara' and 'The Lonesome West' (both listed separately) as part of The Leenane Trilogy in June, 1997.

  • Achoimre

    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 ageing mother. Mag's interference in her daughter's first and possibly final chance of a loving relationship sets in motion a train of events that lead inexorably towards the play's inevitable dénouement.
