Dancing at Lughnasa
This extraordinary play, widely regarded as Friel's masterpiece, is the story of the five unmarried Mundy sisters who live in a modest cottage in Donegal, Ireland. On the threshold of the autumn of 1936, the household revolves around seven-year-old Michael, and his Uncle Jack who has recently returned from 25 years in a leper colony in Uganda. Ancient tribal customs and Christian beliefs clash as the autumnal fires celebrating the Harvest God, Lugh, bathe the high grass in golden light, and distant music on the radio floats across the fields. The sisters, with unfailing courage and sweet forgiveness dance in a wild, final celebration of their way of life before it changes forever.
