The story of a young woman who loses her eyesight, then regains it — along with something much more important. Burning Coal teams up with Delta Boys to present Friel’s modern classic Irish three-hander. Lucius Robinson, Stephen LeTrent and Samantha Corey as ‘Molly Sweeney’.

Molly Sweeney has been without sight since she was ten months old. Told by her husband, her surgeon, and by Molly herself, the story of her passage from blindness to sight is a moving meditation on worlds of the sightless, the seeing, and of those lost in-between.

Estimated run time: 2 hours.
