The Beauty Queen of Leenane
By Martin McDonagh
Presented by London Classic Theatre
Set in the mountains of Connemara, The Beauty Queen of Leenane tells the darkly comic tale of Maureen Folan, a plain, lonely woman in her early forties, and Mag, her manipulative, ageing mother.
When Mag interferes in Maureen's first and possibly final chance of a loving relationship, a train of events is set in motion that leads inexorably towards the play's terrifying finale.
Martin McDonagh's multi award-winning play is a gripping tale of love, hate, passion and insanity that will shake you to your very core.
