When Irish Eyes Are ... Well, They're Spooky: 'Druidsynge'

druid.jpgIRELAND'S DRUID THEATRE is all about playwright John Millington Synge, bringing to the Kennedy Center two plays from its "DruidSynge" compilation of his works.

"The Playboy of the Western World" (which you may have heard of ) and "The Shadow of the Glen" (which you may not have) share themes of death: the former tells the story of a patricide-committer turned hero, the latter of a man who fakes his death to test his wife. Cheery!
