Welcome to the not-so-hot summer of 1936 in rural Donegal, Ireland. As the five Mundy sisters gather round to listen to the dulcet tones of their new radio, ‘Marconi’, change is coming. Father Jack’s back from Uganda, Gerry comes and goes at will, yet there’s one journey yet to be decided upon: will the sisters make it to the Harvest Festival after all? Brian Friel’s celebrated semi-autobiographical play artfully and wittily captures the joys and pitfalls of an immediately identifiable era. Guided by our narrator, Michael, the 'illegitimate' son of the youngest Mundy sister, this play is a celebration of cultural survival. This timeless tale ultimately questions how, in changing circumstances, we relate to and secure our own senses of identity.
