The Playboy of the Western World

Summary

Come join me in reading the magnum opus of J.M. Synge, where a young traveler has come from out of town boasting that he's committed patricide, which, rather than ostracizing him, causes many women of the town to become morbidly curious about this young man, including the prettiest girl in town and the quite newly vivacious widow. But what happens when the supposedly dead father shows up in town to whoop his son into submission? Find out as we explore the dynamics of bad boy charisma and righteous paternal fury is this a hilarious romp through the Irish Countryside.
