'City Lit’s revival of J.M. Synge’s classic comedy is boisterous and intimate.' | Albert Williams
The story’s setting is a country pub on the northwest coast of Ireland—then still under British rule. Into the tavern one night wanders a road-weary young stranger—Christy Mahon, the “playboy” of the title—who fearfully confesses that he has committed a terrible crime: he killed his abusive, overbearing farmer father with a single blow of an iron spade to the head.
Director Brian Pastor’s vigorous, imaginative staging features a fine 12-member cast who revel in the rhythmic, richly accented language through which Synge spins his hilarious yet poignant tale. Joshua Servantez is quite wonderful as Christy—mercurially antic and romantic as he blossoms under the affection that Michaela Voit’s Pegeen bestows upon him.
