"In the Shadow of the Glen" by J. M. Synge is a one-act play first performed in 1903. In an isolated cottage in County Wicklow, a tramp seeking shelter discovers a young wife tending her elderly husband's corpse. But when the dead man suddenly springs to life, revealing his death as a calculated test, long-buried truths about loneliness and marriage emerge. Faced with stark choices, Nora must decide between security and freedom in the wild Irish landscape. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
