The Weir

Closing: November 28, 1999

The Weir - 1999 Broadway History , Info & More

Written by Conor McPherson

In a remote country pub in Ireland, newcomer Valerie arrives and becomes spellbound by an evening of ghostly stories told by the local bachelors who drink there. With a whiff of sexual tension in the air and the wind whistling outside, what starts out as blarney soon darkens as the tales drift into the realm of the supernatural. Then, Valerie reveals a startling story of her own…

Conor McPherson’s The Weir is a haunting evocative evening you will never forget. This new production was filmed remotely from quarantine and designed for a digital experience as part of Irish Rep’s Summer Online Season in July of 2020; it is the third Irish Rep production of The Weir. The 2013 Irish Rep production of The Weir was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Revival. Due to audience demand, The Weir was revived again in Irish Rep’s 2015 season.
