Irish Theatre of Chicago presents Pineapple
By Phillip McMahon
Directed by Siiri Scott
In the notoriously dangerous neighborhood of Ballymun, Paula struggles to free her family from generational poverty, while her sister, Roxanna is only interested in herself, boys, and Bacardi Breezers. When the unknown shows up at her door, will Paula be willing to take a chance on love? Pineapple is a beautifully warm and bitingly funny play from Dublin writer/director Phillip McMahon (Come on Home).
Enter>Action Stay after the play for a talk about themes that resonate here and abroad.
For mature audiences. No intermission.
