The Good Thief

About

It all began with an incident… The Good Thief is a one-man play in the form of a confession. After a seemingly straightforward job spirals into betrayal and violence, a small-time Irish gangster is forced to face the consequences. In telling his sordid and riveting tales, he finally has the chance to reflect on his past and long for a future beyond brutality. Originally premiered in Dublin in 1994, The Good Thief was written by Tony Award Nominee Conor McPherson (The Weir, The Seafarer, Girl from the North Country), one of Ireland's most distinctive theatrical voices. Starring three-time Tony Award nominee Christopher Fitzgerald, this seldom-seen play is now presented by Irish Repertory Theatre in association with Two River Theater.
