Here’s about the show:

By the light of a flickering candle, five men play cards. Each has his own reason to take part in this Christmas Eve poker game, but for one, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The Seafarer tells the tale of James ‘Sharky’ Harkin; erstwhile fisherman/van driver/chauffeur and recovering alcoholic who has returned to his family home in Dublin. He is here to escape and to look after his blind older brother Richard, who rules the chaotic, booze-fuelled roost. Soon old buddies Ivan and Nicky are round for a festive tipple or ten and bring with them a mysterious stranger. The cards come out, but as the game goes on it becomes clear to Sharky that drink will not be the only demon he has to face tonight. Magnificently atmospheric, this darkly funny Faustian tale of hope and despair was nominated for Evening Standard; Tony and Olivier Awards for Best Play.
