National Theatre Live: Playboy of the Western World

A man shares a dark secret and becomes a hero. And then everything changes again.

Nicola Coughlan (Bridgerton) joins Éanna Hardwicke (The Sixth Commandment) and Siobhán McSweeney (Derry Girls) in John Millington Synge’s riveting play of youth and self-discovery.

Pegeen Flaherty’s life is turned upside down when a young man walks into her pub claiming that he’s killed his father. Instead of being shunned, the killer becomes a local hero and begins to win hearts, that is until a second man unexpectedly arrives on the scene…

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Caitríona McLaughlin directs this darkly funny tale full to

the brim with secrets.

Tickets £15.50 standard, £11.60 under 26.

Screening starts at 7.30pm. Doors and bar open at 6.45pm.
