Full-length play

High above the River Bandon in Kinsale, County Cork, Ireland, Nancy Donough hears the cry of the banshee. But she’s not the only one to hear it — nor is she the only one to be haunted by the plaintive wail that reaches across generations.

“Banshee” is a story about ambition, fate and what we inherit from our ancestors.

It received a staged reading in 2024 by the Reading Theater Project. Sean Sassaman directed.
