 Last chance to see "The Weir" at the Ghent Playhouse
The Ghent Playhouse stage is transformed into an Irish Pub called the Weir
somewhere on Ireland’s Northwest coast as the Playhouse continues its 41st
Season with Conor McPherson’s award winning The Weir.  This is the final
weekend with performances Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday
afternoon at 2 p.m.



In the intimate pub setting, as Brendon tends bar on a foggy evening,  locals
Jack, Jim and Finbar tell spellbinding stories of ghost lore, Irish Gentle
Folk and a haunted house built over a fairy road to Valerie, the newcomer
in the village.   As the libations flow and the evening progresses, the
stories that hit the most haunting chord are those that tell of the ghosts
that inhabit the shadows of our own minds and taunt of what might have been
if only…



The cast consists of Donald Dolan as Jack, Jerry Greene as Brendan, Neal
Berntson as Jim, John Wallace as Finbar and Monica Brady as Valerie. This
production is directed by Aaron Holbritter who is “thrilled to be making my
Ghent Playhouse premiere with it (The Weir).”  Gabrielle Smachetti is the
Assistant Director and Stage Manager.  Cathy Lee-Visscher  is the Producer
and set design is by Robert Walker And Sam Reilly.



Critics and the audience love it!  Don't risk another sold out house -
reserve your tickets early.  Tickets are $20 each, $17 for Friends of the
Playhouse and $10 for Students with ID.  Tickets may be reserved by calling
1-800-838-3006 or going to the website at ghentplayhouse.org.
