The Weir Top / Details
Fri 04 Jul 1997

A bar in a remote part of Ireland: the local lads are swapping spooky stories to impress a young woman from Dublin newly moved into the area. But she turns the tables on them…

The Weir was highly praised for its rich use of monologue and storytelling and was the Royal Court’s biggest selling play of the 1990s, transferring to the Theatre Downstairs at the Duke of York’s in February 1998, and then to Broadway. It has since been performed all over the world and, in 1999, won the Olivier Award for Best New Play.
