It is possible to miss something that you never had… Acclaimed playwright Conor McPherson (The Seafarer, Shining City, Dublin Carol) drives this point home in a series of interconnected monologues that explore the heart and soul of three generations of Irishmen.
A young man escapes his parents’ house to share digs with two alcohol-soaked friends and a mesmerizing young woman; a middle-aged laborer lands a dream job that he’s not remotely qualified for; and a widower receives a mysterious package that touches a hidden part of his memory.
The lightly interlocking stories of these three men at three different stages of life weave together a tale that is both spirited and moving in its portrait of ordinary lives.
Directed by Writers’ Theatre favorite William Brown (A Little Night Music, Heartbreak House), Port Authority will leave you reveling in the rough lyricism of its language and moved by the poignancy of its stories of lost love, big dreams and the consequences of even our smallest choices.
