    Editorial Reviews:

    Product Description
    One of the best-known Irish playwrights, John Millington Synge premiered The Playboy of the Western World in 1907. It immediately provoked controversy, eventually resulting in the infamous Playboy riots. It has been recorded and adapted many times, but this timeless recording stars the Irish actors who made it a classic, including Siobhan McKenna and Cyril Cusack.

    5 out of 5 stars JUST SAW THE PLAY   March 14, 1999
    Victor Bloom MD (grosse pointe, MI USA)
    5 out of 6 found this review helpful

    It is a wild, woolly, farcical, slapstick, poetic-philosophical comedy, which deserves a reading, as the Irish accents can be largely non-understandable. The play had the feel of a classic, although it helps to know the times and the Irish reaction to it, historically.
