World Premiere at Dublin Theatre Festival
A wild, heartfelt new stage adaptation of The Quiet Man, inspired by the original Maurice Walsh story that sparked the Hollywood classic.
Flying cows. Stubborn sheep. A ploughing contest. A handball match. And one hell of a punch-up. Paddy Bán Enright returns from America with money in his pocket and peace on his mind. But when he falls for fiery Mary Kate Danagher - whose bullish brother isn't having it - he’s drawn into a village still healing from war.
Written by John Breen with Mikel Murfi and directed by both, this riotous new Irish production returns to Walsh’s gritty, funny, and emotionally rich original tale - delivering a bold theatrical experience that’s anything but quiet.
