Martin McDonagh is a genius. These three plays comprise the Leenane trilogy and though each story stands alone, the characters and events recounted in each are loosely interwoven. McDonagh's Ireland is definitely not the romanticized one of The Quiet Man. The stories are dark as night and funnier than they have any right to be. The dialogue is brilliant. And yet there is an underlying sadness as well as a humanity that gives the plays a soul and a depth.
