Port Authority
Father Ted's Ardal O’Hanlon stars in this new production of Conor McPherson's Dublin-set drama.
Operated by The Society of London Theatre
Port Authority
Southwark Playhouse, Shipwright Yard, London
In Conor McPherson's Port Authority, a young boy leaves home for the first time, a man begins a job for which he is not qualified, and a pensioner receives a mysterious package.
As each man confronts the significance of these events, they are forced to take stock of themselves, their feelings, and of the decisions they have made.
Painting a vivid picture of life in contemporary Dublin, award-winning playwright McPherson (The Weir, The Veil and Dublin Carol) weaves together a moving and funny tale of loves lost and found, the consequences of big dreams and the significance of even our smallest choices.
Port Authority production stars stand-up comedian Ardal O’Hanlon, well known for his leading roles in television programmes Father Ted and My Hero.
