Booking to 6 May 2023
The world premiere of Eugene O’Hare’s new play The Dry House comes to Marylebone Theatre in London.
The talented cast includes Kathy Kiera Clarke (Aunt Sarah from Derry Girls) as Claire, alongside Mairead McKinley (Edge of Tomorrow, Molly’s Way) as Claire’s sister Chrissy, and Carla Langley (The Ferryman, Carnival Row) as Chrissy’s daughter Heather.
This darkly comic redemptive play about love, loss and the possibility of hope after years of self-destruction is one of the year’s must-see new plays.
The Dry House is written and directed by Eugene O’Hare, and runs at the Marylebone Theatre from 31 March to 6 May 2023.
What's the story of The Dry House?
The story of The Dry House follows sisters Chrissy and Claire, as they attempt to overcome the devastating impact of alcoholism on their family. In County Down, Ireland, Chrissy promises Claire that after one final drink she will go to the Dry House to get sober, but Claire doubts she means it this time. Family and booze combine in this powerful and timely exploration of grief, family, addiction – and the immense and redemptive power of hope.
