OONA WYNNE O'LEARY

PLEASE GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT
Reviews:
"O’Leary’s natural language took us wherever she wanted us to go with ease and laughter."
​
An absurdist comedy about end-of-life care and filial piety. We follow three daughters, all named Elizabeth, as they desperately try to honor their father Frank’s dying wish. Unfortunately, he told them different things.

AN EPISODIC SITCOM PERFORMED IN FRONT OF A LIVE AUDIENCE.
Meet Amelia, a world weary traveler who found a home in the not-quite-maybe-almost open hostel Backpax, located in the loosely-defined nation-state of Marbec.

Filmed in front of a live audience.
Starring Garrett Allain as Steve; Logan Hulick as Dante; Marybeth Kram as Haley; Madelyn Murphy as Amelia; and Jamie Yates as Cali. Directed by Alan Cosby. Dave Audino as Camera Operator.
