“The Weir”- Camaraderie, Alcohol, and Ghost Stories
8 / 10
The play is an old friend to habitués of Irish Repertory Theatre, including myself. This is its fourth incarnation. Dan Butler peppers conversation with well honed barbs and reveals Jack’s sensitive side with finesse. John Keating is beautifully low key. The actor could give lessons in listening. Sean Gormley’s Finbar has just enough ego to separate himself, but the performer keeps him likeable. All have repeatedly played these roles. Camaraderie is organic.
