Synopsis

Jack is an actor who stars in poor quality porn films. One day on set, whilst struggling to work with a particularly uninterested and uninspiring co-star, he has an epiphany and is confronted by a vision of how very different his life could be.

For the first time in his life he takes stock of his surroundings and decides it is time to reassess his values and direction. In a grand gesture he leaves the studio - and the porn industry - behind for good, only fate has different ideas.

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.
