The Reviews Are In…

“Michael Wolfe does an astonishing job in the role of Mij—he carries the play, making the audience feel sympathy for this man-child, even when we wince at his actions… Wolfe’s adept portrayal of this angry, and grief-stricken man is both arresting (in more than one way) and enthralling.”

“…Dianna Martin directs her actors well, bringing out the humor in the play, as well as the sadness. She does a great job using the sparse set (which is uncredited). The lighting design by Alison May also communicates the hopeless and violent feelings many people of Bainbridge have.”

“…Half Forrest Gump, half Taxi Driver…”

“The play is unflinching and painful in its examination of the tragedy of neophobia and racism. It’s a difficult play to watch at times, as Mij makes bad decision after bad decision. Anyone for whom racial epithets are triggering might also want to skip this one.”

“Wolfe’s bravura performance anchors the play solidly- with a nigh-constant marathon stream-of-consciousness narrative, it’s almost a one-man-show that happens to have six other actors in it to bring the stories to life. His Mij is simultaneously appealing and appalling.”

About Banshee of Bainbridge

The year is 1985. After losing his mother to cancer, 33 year old Mij Sullivan, an Irish-American Bronx native, believes it is his duty to restore his once all Irish neighborhood back to the way it used to be. The only problem is that he must fight off the Puerto Ricans to claim it. With a handful of visits by a banshee who has journeyed from the motherland to give him strength, Mij transforms himself into a warrior, but finds that the battle might only exist within himself.
