The Shaughraun

shaughranby Dion Boucicault
directed by  Charlotte Moore

October 30 – January 3, 1999

  • Obie Award, “Best Actor” – Daniel Gerroll, The Shaughraun

Desperate forbidden passions! Beautiful damsels in distress! Swashbuckling swordplay! Lots of kissing! Villains of legendary mustache curling hurled from cliffs! And a dog!

And a handsome vagabond hero whose fiddle is the soul of every fair and the life of every funeral! Against a background thick with the intrigue of the secret Fenian Uprising in Ireland in 1866, Dion Boucicault, the undisputed master of melodrama, unravels a comic masterpiece, long neglected, but springing to like once again to open our 10th Anniversary season. One of the most attractive casts of all time assembled on any stage will act their hearts out as we hiss the villains and cheer on the heroic Conn,  The Shaughraun in his quest for justice and the right to the woman he loves…

“one of the more charming Off Broadway productions of the season” – New York Times
