The Seafarer

A slate of Washington’s finest actors–Edward Gero, Philip Goodwin and Floyd King–come together to bring McPherson’s Broadway hit to the stage! Gero was nominated for a Helen Hayes Award for his performance in last season’s Shining City, also by Conor McPherson. With The Seafarer, McPherson returns to The Studio Theatre with another sharply observed and brilliantly written portrait of haunted Dublin. Four Irish mates–one blind, the rest blind drunk–play a Christmas Eve poker game with the devil.
