Port Authority (play)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Port Authority is a 2001 play by Conor McPherson. It tells of three interwoven lives: a boy leaves home for the first time; a man starts a job for which he is unqualified; a pensioner is sent a mysterious package.

The play was first produced by The Gate Theatre of Dublin but premiered at the New Ambassadors Theatre in London in February of 2001, before moving to the Gate Theatre in April of that year. The production was directed by Conor McPherson himself.

The Atlantic Theater Company (336 West 20th St, New York, NY, 10011) staged a limited run of the play from May 21, 2008 - June 15, 2008, starring Brian d'Arcy James, John Gallagher Jr. and Jim Norton.
