The Pillowman

by Martin McDonagh

His darkest stories have come to life

From the writer of In Bruges and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri comes a darkly black comedy.

In a shadowy totalitarian state, a writer is arrested and interrogated following a spate of gruesome child killings. His connection to the murders? They closely resemble the plots of his disturbing short stories. Are these copycat crimes or is something more sinister at play? And what drives him to craft such dark tales?

This wickedly funny, twisted masterpiece from Academy Award winner Martin McDonagh explores the blurry line between truth and fiction, and forces us to ask the question – how much power do stories have?

Winner of the 2004 Olivier Award for Best New Play

“Wickedly funny” Evening Standard 

“A spellbinding stunner of a play. Comedies don’t come any blacker than this” New York Times

Martin McDonagh is a British-Irish playwright and filmmaker, the acclaimed writer and director of Oscar-winning film Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, In Bruges and recently The Banshees of Inisherin which won Golden Globe awards for Best Motion Picture and Best Screenplay. His work is known for its black humour, grotesque and visceral imagery, and moral ambiguity.
