The English, of Irish origin, Martin McDonagh writes his successful plays about far away Irish lands in a unique style. He depicts tragic, small destinies, in a limit-situation - apparently without an exit -, with a profound knowledge of the human nature, with dark humour, in a heart-breaking manner, often in terrifying colours. It is impressive, moving and funny.
"This little village called Leenane is very far from Timişoara, Novi Sad and even Budapest. But the events in this play are everyday ones, even in these places. I honesty hope that the viewer knows the changes of situations and the most dramatic moments in the play only by hearing. We rarely find amongst us someone so lucky/unlucky who hasn't lived himself or herself all the agony and the bizarre and profound beauty of the relationships between the interdependent and hopeless characters. Therefore, Leenane is here and we are there, in Leenane". - Upor László
