In a remote country pub in Ireland, newcomer Valerie finds herself drawn into an evening of ghost stories shared by the local bachelors who gather there to drink. With the wind howling outside and a hint of tension in the air, what begins as playful blarney soon drifts into the supernatural realm when Valerie shares her own haunting tale.
The Weir is a richly atmospheric play that captures the loneliness and longing of rural life and the flickering connections between strangers. It won the Olivier Award for Best Play and is widely considered a masterpiece of modern Irish theatre.
