The Weir / 2025
February 2025
Produced by John Clancy
"The Weir" opened February 2025 in Corofin, then hits the road for the All Ireland 3-Act festival circuit! Save the date for an unforgettable night of theatre.
About the play
In a remote Irish pub on a windy evening, four locals welcome a newcomer from Dublin with stories. What begins as casual banter over drinks turns into an evening of mesmerising tales - of fairies, ghosts, and things that go bump in the night. But when the visitor shares her own story, the evening takes an unexpected turn that will leave everyone forever changed.
Conor McPherson's award-winning play weaves a spellbinding tapestry of folklore and humanity, where the line between the supernatural and the deeply personal becomes beautifully blurred. "The Weir" is an unforgettable evening of storytelling that reminds us how our past shapes who we are, and how sharing our stories can forge the strongest of bonds.
