A Riveting Plot to Keep You Hooked

Hangmen is another critically acclaimed play by the British-Irish playwright Martin McDonagh. Set in Oldham in 1965, it centers around the hangman, Harry. He is the second-best executioner in town.

On top of that, he also owns a great pub. His wife and his 15-year-old daughter are the most important people in this life.

But things took a turn when hanging as a punishment was abolished in Britain. The second-best hangman is expected to say something about this law. So a journalist comes to his pub trying to get his opinions.

Harry is reluctant to comment on anything. But tempted, he ultimately takes the plunge and gives an elaborate interview. What happens during the interview and consequently makes up the drama.

McDonagh has very deeply and beautifully sequenced the awe-inspiring details. Harry's constant mental struggle, the tragedies that unfold in his life, and the surprising way the play ends are a treat you can't say no to!

Worthy of a Million Awards

The brilliance of the play hasn't gone unnoticed by noted theatre critics. For that reason, the play has been showered with appreciation and awards.

After receiving its world premiere at the Royal Court Theatre, in September 2015, Hangmen won New York Drama Critics' Circle Award. It was also nominated for Olivier Awards, Critics' Circle Theatre Awards, and the Evening Standard Theatre Awards.

Newspapers like NYtimes showered it with acclaim:

Hangmen is a Triumphant return for Martin McDonagh. He works his double-edged, sinister magic. Criminally Enjoyable! - The New York Times

A Witty Production

Hangmen's Broadway run is directed by Matthew Dunster. Fight director Kate Waters enriches the action sequences with brilliant attention to detail. After a masterpiece like Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, McDonagh's comedic genius is apparent in this play.
