A wild, heartfelt new stage adaptation inspired by the story that sparked the film classic.

Flying cows. Stubborn sheep. A ploughing contest. A handball match. And one hell of a punch-up. The Quiet Man is coming to the stage—and it’s anything but quiet. Paddy Bán Enright returns from America, his pockets bulging with money and peace on his mind. He comes to bury his mother and start a quiet life on a small farm. But when he falls for the fiery Mary Kate Danagher—whose bullish brother wants none of it—he finds himself in the middle of a village still reeling from war. Cue the matchmaker, Micilín Óg, and a chaotic clash of love, land, pride and livestock.

The Quiet Man is based on the original short story by Maurice Walsh, first published in 1933 in the Saturday Evening Post. While the tale famously inspired the 1952 film starring John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara, this stage production goes back to the source—capturing the grit, humour and emotional undercurrent of Walsh’s writing, rather than recreating the Hollywood version.
This riotous new Irish production is written by John Breen with Mikel Murfi and Directed by Mikel Murfi and John Breen.
