URGENT UPDATE: Killygordon playwright Niall Gallen is making headlines as his debut radio play, Meenuiscebán, is set to premiere on Wednesday, October 15, 2023, at 8:00 PM on Highland Radio. This highly anticipated event is part of the Letterkenny Cathedral Quarter’s tenth Literary Festival.
The play delves into the emotional and complex story of Sean Grant, a young farmer in 1980s Donegal, whose peaceful life is upended by the return of his brother Patrick from America, bringing along his fiancée, Paige Kennedy. Gallen’s narrative captures the tension between family tradition and modernity, resonating with anyone who has faced similar conflicts in their own lives.
“This to me is a fantastic achievement and will be a proud day,” Gallen expressed, highlighting the significance of this milestone for both him and the community. The production, presented by Elusive Theatre, marks the first instance where Gallen’s work will be performed by voice actors, bringing a fresh perspective to his storytelling.
Listeners can expect a gripping exploration of the friction between Sean’s connection to nature and the materialistic values introduced by his brother. The play serves as a poignant reminder of a time when people could speak freely without fear of offending others, a sentiment that resonates strongly in today’s society.

As the curtain rises on this debut, audiences are invited to tune in and experience a story that promises to be both thought-provoking and emotionally charged.
