Kildare Drama Festival 2022 - 'The Beauty of Queen of Leenane' OPEN

About the Play

The Beauty Queen of Leenane tells the story of Maureen Folan, a lonely woman in her early forties, and Mag her manipulative mother.  Mag’s interference in her daughters’ first and possibly final chance of a loving relationship sets in motion a chain of events that are as tragically funny as they are sad.
