This Lime Tree Bower by Conor McPherson opened 5/7. How many Irishmen does it take to create a vision of the Emerald Isle in Portland? In this case, just one, and we've got him three times over! 

This Lime Tree Bower by Conor McPherson opened Friday, May 7 at CoHo Theater.
Co-produced with Our Shoes Are Red/The Performance Lab,
and directed by Devon Allen.

McPherson's break-out play is performed by Matthew DiBiasio, Matthew Micucci, and Dennis Kelly. The interweaving monologues of Frank, Joe, and Ray reveal their stories. Within the setting of a Dublin seaside town, we ride the waves through the heights of humour and the depths of sorrow, ultimately anchoring down in the full realm of human existence. Each winds up in a place of his own making; we find ourselves fascinated by the journey each takes and can compare their destinations with our own. Lively and unsettling, you are sure to find your creative center shifted watching these young men traverse the full range of Irish character.
