By Martin McDonagh. A dark comedy thriller that crackles with emotional fire and the blackest of humour, The Beauty Queen of Leenane is at once hilarious and horrific. Trapped in a remote corner of Galway, in a love hate relationship with her manipulative mother, Mag, Maureen finally glimpses light at the end of a depressingly long tunnel. Mag, however, has different ideas. The Beauty Queen of Leenane fully earns its place alongside Martin McDonagh’s string of comic masterpieces - The Banshees of Inisherin, In Bruge and The Lieutenant of Inishmore. Miss it at your peril. “This amateur production of “The Beauty Queen of Leenane” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk”
