The Seafarer

What the critics had to say...
 
"THE STUFF OF GREATNESS.
Do not miss this play!"

-- Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal
   
 
"Written and directed by the prodigiously talented Conor McPherson,
ONE OF THE FINEST ENSEMBLES
to grace a Broadway state in years uncovers the soul-defining clarity within the drunkard's haze. As unlikely as it sounds,
THE SEAFARER may just be
THE PICK-ME-UP PLAY OF THE SEASON."

-- Ben Brantley, The New York Times
 
"HAUNTING AND HILARIOUS!
This remarkably humane play is filled with colorful, spirited language that's seized with gusto by an excellent five-person cast."

-- Michael Kuchwara, AP
 
"THIS BRILLIANT DRAMA POSITIVELY GLOWS!
If you see one play during this holiday season, rush to the Booth Theatre."

-- Jacques le Sourd, The Journal News
 
"CHILLING AND HILARIOUS!
Simultaneously rollicking and haunting McPherson elevates his deceptively simple premise via the richness of his dialogue, which resonates with memorable pungency.
THE SEAFARER MIGHT BE A NEW PLAY, BUT IT ALREADY HAS THE FEEL OF A TIMELESS CLASSIC."

-- Frank Sheck, The Hollywood Reporter
