Bio
From a theatrical theatre family going back to Vaudeville, my plays have been performed globally, with my latest, “Great Gatsby It’s Murder!”, (last of a trilogy) premiered at Canada’s National Arts Center, followed by a 6-week tour, and was a sold-out performance off-Broadway run this year. I retired as head writer of the Eddie May Mysteries (Covid) and moved to Guatemala to finish my historical drama screenplay “Wings of the Gael” which won the Oaxaca Global Film Festival SP challenge, and was finalist, semi-Finalist and Honorable mention at various SP competitions. The working script was previously titled “Wearing of the Green” “The Girl From Mayo” and “Uprising” over the years…settling on “Wings of the Gael”. [email protected]

UNIQUE SELLING POINT

This screenplay offers a rare, authentic female perspective on the 1798 Irish Rebellion, blending historical accuracy with powerful personal transformation. Unlike typical war stories, it explores the psychological toll of violence through a mother's eyes while maintaining the epic scale of historical conflict, creating a unique bridge between intimate character study and sweeping political drama.

STANDOUT FEATURES

  • Unique Hook: The transformation of Saoirse from a frightened child to a fierce leader in the rebellion against English oppression.
  • Historical Context: The screenplay intertwines personal stories with significant historical events, providing a rich backdrop for character development.
  • Emotional Depth: The exploration of grief, loss, and resilience adds layers to the characters and their motivations.
