   What is Butterworth's 'the ferryman' about?

   • As does Butterworth’s latest. The Ferryman is profligate, boisterous, far-reaching. It is 1981 in County Armagh. Bobby Sands is on hunger strike, and the Carneys are on their farm, bringing in the harvest. In one corner is an away-with-the-fairies auntie; in another a revolutionary old dame.

   Who is Sam Mendes & Jez Butterworth?

   • T he combination of Jez Butterworth as writer and Sam Mendes as director has inevitably turned this play into a hot ticket. But behind the box-office glamour of a work co-produced with Sonia Friedman and already destined for the West End lies a rich, serious, deeply involving play about the shadows of the past and the power of silent love.

   What is Butterworth's gangland politics?

   • You could say the play combines the gangland politics of his first hit, Mojo, with the rural rituals of his later work including Jerusalem. That, however, would be to do Butterworth an injustice, since there are big issues at stake. The year is 1981. The setting, except for a brief prologue, is a 50-acre farm in County Armagh, Northern Ireland.
