Hangmen News & Features

From the devilishly inspired mind of Martin McDonagh—Academy Award^®–winning writer of Three Billboards Outside Ebbings, Missouri—comes Hangmen, a killer comedy nominated for 5 Tony Awards^® including Best Play. What’s Britain’s second-most famous executioner to do now that hanging has been abolished? Drink, of course. But when a cub reporter and a mysterious stranger turn up at his pub, everything hangs in the balance. Hangmen marks McDonagh’s seventh play on Broadway, following his Tony-nominated productions of The Pillowman and The Lieutenant of Inishmore. Winner of the Olivier Award for Best New Play and Set Design, Hangmen plays a strictly limited engagement at the Golden Theatre after multiple sold-out engagements in London and off-Broadway’s Atlantic Theatre Company.
