The Ferryman Reviews

CRITICS PICK! THIS ASTONISHING, GLORIOUS, MAGNIFICENT DRAMA TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY. The Ferryman is an endlessly vibrant work, directed with sweeping passion and meticulous care by Sam Mendes. THIS IS THEATER AS CHARGED AND EXPANSIVE AS LIFE ITSELF
Ben Brantley, The New York Times
A stunning drama, filled with heartrending drama and belly laughs. AS POWERFUL AS ANYTHING ON STAGE TODAY.
Greg Evans, Deadline
A RIVETING WORK OF ART. The evening is a meticulous unfolding of plot and character that builds to one of the most ferociously rewarding climaxes of my playgoing experience. THIS EXPLOSIVE, EXHILARATING DRAMA IS WHAT A THEATER LOVER LIVES FOR.
Peter Marks, The Washington Post

Summary

Northern Ireland, 1981. The Carney farmhouse is a hive of activity with preparations for the annual harvest. A day of hard work on the land and a traditional night of feasting and celebrations lie ahead. But this year they will be interrupted by a visitor.

Following unanimous, five-star critical acclaim and a thrice-extended, year-long run in London, Jez Butterworth’s The Ferryman finally debuts on Broadway this October. This “fiercely gripping play” (Ben Brantley, The New York Times) is directed by Academy® and Tony Award® winner Sam Mendes and has won three Olivier Awards, including Best New Play and Best Director; three Evening Standard Theatre Awards, including Best Play and Best Director; three WhatsOnStage Awards, including Best New Play and Best Director; and was named the Best New Play at the Critics’ Circle Theatre Awards.
