| Breakdown
“Playboy of the Western World”:
A man with a mysterious past enters a small town bar and seduces the spirited barmaid, and the entire town, with his storytelling. J.M. Synge’s Irish masterpiece The Playboy of the Western World—an “extravagant comedy,” in the words of its author, with a darkly modern undercurrent—is rich with language, imagination and spirit. Kate Whoriskey directs and Daniel Breaker (A Doctor in Spite of Himself at Intiman and a Tony nominee for Passing Strange) stars.
Christy Mahon - Young man who claims to have murdered his father (already cast)
Old Mahon, Christy's father, a squatter
Michael James Flaherty, a publican
Margaret Flaherty, called Pegeen Mike, Michael's daughter, and the bar-maid
Shawn Keogh, Pegeen's fiance
Widow Quinn, a widow of about thirty
Philly Cullen and Jimmy Farrell, farmers
Sara Tansey, Susan Brady, Honor Blake, and Nelly, village girls
“The Piano Teacher”
When a retired piano teacher—seemingly gentle, warm and generous—is visited by two former students, the hidden secrets of the past send shock waves through Julia Cho’s drama, which was produced to great acclaim Off-Broadway. Cho received the 2010 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize for The Language Archive.
Mrs. K – An elderly woman of Western European descent.
