The Irishtown Players in Dublin are on the verge of bringing their newest play across the pond to Broadway. But the up-and-coming playwright has delivered a script that just doesn’t feel…“Irish” enough? Everyone’s alive, no one’s drunk, and there’s not a fairy to be seen! So they do the only sensible thing: they make up their own Irish Play, inadvertently and hilariously sending up the Irish dramatic canon. This “rip-roaring…laugh til-you-cry” (Exeunt) comedy sharply satirizes what we demand from Irish stories — and the knots artists tie themselves in to deliver.
