DANCING AT LUGHNASA

Royal Exchange Theatre

Synopsis

Driven by an overwhelming desire, the five Mundy sisters dance. Together they twirl and spin, it is wild, passionate, reckless, and for the briefest of moments they abandon the restraints of life. When influences from a wider, more modern world creep into their Donegal home, the sisters are swept along in a sea of change and suddenly the life they know, on the outskirts of Bellybeg, is gone for good. Brian Friel’s rich, multi-award-winning drama, won both the Olivier and Tony award for best play. This beautifully crafted family portrait is an exploration of memory and how the future will arrive no matter how much we resist.
