Port Authority

Port Authority By Conor McPherson

What if the one who got away, got away three times?

With Conor McPherson’s Port Authority, you might ask yourself, “What the heck do these three Irishmen have in common?” Kevin’s crushing on a new roommate whose eyes are directed elsewhere. Dermot’s recounting a cocaine-fueled revel that may land him a life-changing job. And, Joe’s stuck in a senior center where a package in the mail becomes a guarded then treasured possession. But, as anyone knows who’s seen Imago’s previous McPherson productions—Shining City, The Birds, and The Seafarer—nothing’s quite what it seems.

Live at Imago Theatre, 17 SE 8th

March 8 to 24, Fri/Sat 7:30, Sun at 2:00

Directed by Jerry Mouawad

Starring Tory Mitchell (The Seafarer, Where’s Bruno?), Matt Sunderland (Special K, Happy Times), John Mikhail Duggan (ZooZoo)

McPherson is a master storyteller able to find humor, pathos, and interconnections in the most unexpected places. In a way, Kevin, Dermot, and Joe emerge as a collective Everyman. We’re all searching for love. We’re all the stars of our own tragicomedies, too. We all have a story to tell.
