Outlanders

Synopsis

Adam leaves his hometown in Poland and hitches to London to find his long-lost brother and build a new life. The city is cold and dangerous but it’s a magnet for migrants from all over Europe who have come to make their fortune. Adam meets a beautiful Russian girl, Anna, who works illegally to support her family back home.

Adam finds his big brother, Jan, who works supplying illegal foreign labour to construction sites.  Jan has everything – wealth, status and women. Adam is drawn into the glamorous life but is soon dragged down into the corruption at the heart of Jan’s world. After a brutal death at the building site, Jan is hounded by the police. Adam protects him but discovers shocking evidence of Jan's guilt. The police arrest Anna and force Adam to make the most difficult decision of his life: betray his brother or watch Anna be deported as an illegal.

The Weir cast and director The Weir

Director: Conor McPherson

Year: 2026

Set in a remote pub in rural Ireland, four local men - Jack, Brendan, Jim, and Finbar - gather for their nightly pints. Their routine is disrupted when Finbar introduces Valerie, a newcomer from Dublin. To impress her, the men trade eerie local folklore and ghost stories. However, the mood shifts profoundly when Valerie reveals the tragic, personal reason for her arrival. Far from a simple thriller, the play is a tender, intimate exploration of deep-seated loneliness, the comfort of shared storytelling, and the delicate human need for connection amidst the isolation of the countryside.
