A Most Notorious Woman by Maggie Cronin

EXIT Stage Left
San Francisco, CA


This one-woman show by Maggie Cronin is based on the exploits of the 16th century Gaelic pirate queen Grace "Grania" O'Malley and features Christina Augello as the woman who defied tradition to become a feminist icon. "Cut-throat pirate...hard-nosed businesswoman...barbarian...symbol of national defiance...woman in love...romantic heroine..." all are revealed in this "absorbing and multi-layered portrait of a most bewitching and infuriating historical figure". Grania's fervent love of the sea and her passion for adventure drove most to say she had indeed "impudently stepped o'er her bounds of womanhood." As tribal chieftan, her fierce loyalty, to an Ireland soon to be lost forever, caused the English to fear her and Elizabeth I to confront her. Well into her 70's she continued to courageously lead and aid the Irish rebellions against the English invaders. "Entertaining and thought-provoking", Ms. Cronin's solo script captures the very texture of the woman, the time and the country.
