WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
William Petersen (TV's C.S.I.) stars in Trinity Rep's production of Dublin Carol, by Conor McPherson. Amy Morton directs.
This intimate gem of a play takes place in Dublin, on Christmas Eve. A man's daughter brings him news about her mother which offers him an unexpected chance at redemption. The compelling tale of pain and hope, memory and myth had its premiere in 2000 and the press dubbed playwright Conor McPherson "the finest dramatist of his generation." (London Telegraph)

Blame it on the solstice with its maddeningly shortened days, but even among nonbelievers, Christmas-unto-New Year's tends to be a time of reckoning -- a season for settling scores, making amends, and, with any luck, starting fresh. At Providence's Trinity Rep, Scrooge isn't the only one coming up short due to a life ill spent. In Conor McPherson's 2000 play
Dublin Carol, old Ebenezer has company in one John Plunkett, an aging undertaker's assistant who's a dedicated if functional alcoholic.
Played in a fine, blathery turn by television star William Petersen, John is not one of your bitter, belligerent, sloppy drunks. Barely impaired, articulate, friendly -- even downright chatty -- he's [...]
