Discover our on-site exhibition that explores the life and work of master Irish playwright Brian Friel, from his early fiction in The New Yorker to his enduring influence on theater. Learn about his deep connection to the Donegal landscape and its people, immortalized in his most iconic works, as well as his evolution as a writer and the events that inspired his plays. Mapping the Land: The Literary Landscape of Brian Friel features the playwright’s personal letters, photographs, manuscripts, and more. Written guides and displays will lead visitors through Friel’s life, from his birth in 1929 to his death in 2015.
The exhibition is free and open to the public. Members of the public can view the exhibition in Irish Repertory Theatre’s 2nd Floor Gallery at 132 West 22nd Street, beginning one hour before our regular daily performances.* Ticket holders are also welcome to view the exhibition during intermission.
