Set around a haunted house hemmed in by a restive, starving
populace, The Veil weaves Ireland's troubled colonial history into
a transfixing story about the search for love, the transcendental
and the circularity of time. May 1822, rural Ireland. The defrocked
Reverend Berkeley arrives at the crumbling former glory of Mount
Prospect House to accompany seventeen year-old Hannah to England.
She is to be married off to a marquis in order to resolve the debts
of her mother's estate. However, compelled by the strange voices
that haunt his beautiful young charge and a fascination with the
psychic current that pervades the house, Berkeley proposes a
seance, the consequences of which are catastrophic. Conor
McPherson's play The Veil was first performed in the Lyttelton
auditorium of the National Theatre, London, in September 2011.
