The Field is a fierce and tender study of the love a man can have for land and the ruthless lengths he will go to in order to obtain the object of his desire.

“Maguire’s Bull boils with a fury that brings a tense focus to the play’s strongest scenes.” -NY Times

“Director Ciarán O’Reilly gives the production an unhurried pace that allows his cast to fill their performances with realistic detail. . . and cohere into a vivid stage community.” -Variety

“burns with a steady, old-fashioned light.” -NY Sun

‘Director Ciarán O’Reilly’s forceful staging captures its essential power.” -New York Post

“(this) talented ensemble bring out all the nuance and richness of Keane’s uncannily engaging script.” -Time Out NY

“One of the most outstanding, multifaceted performances to be seen on a New York stage this year.”  -Irish Voice

“The Field is superb: a gripping story, sharply and tautly stage and spellbindlingly acted by a first-rate cast…  Make Irish Rep’s sublime take on The Field one of your theatrical destinations this summer.” -nytheatre.com
