The Seafarer December 20, 2009

In this new play by by Conor McPherson, it's Christmas Eve and Sharky has returned to Dublin to look after his irascible, aging brother who has recently gone blind. Old drinking buddies Ivan and Nicky are holed up at the house too, hoping to play some cards. But with the arrival of a stranger from the distant past, the stakes are raised ever higher. In fact, Sharky may be playing for his very soul.
