Ballybeg (fictional town)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For other uses, see Ballybeg.

Ballybeg, an anglicisation of the Irish language name Baile Beag (IPA: [bˠalˠə bʲɔɡ]) meaning "Little Town", is a fictional town in which Irish playwright Brian Friel set many of his works.[1] Several of Friel's plays, including Philadelphia Here I Come!, Translations and Dancing at Lughnasa, are set in the fictional County Donegal town.[2][3][4] Friel's Ballybeg is partially based on the real village of Glenties, close to where he lived.[5][6]
