The Station is set in West Cork, Ireland, 1952. The McMahons are under pressure preparing for the stations, a catholic tradition where a community mass is held in a a parishioner’s home. An investor from America unexpectedly shows up, to assess the quality of Joe McMahon’s proposed stud farm. The household snaps under the weight of this added pressure. Secrets rise to the surface. They come so hard and fast that the family might actually drown. The Station is an ambitious play, a juicy piece of work for an ensemble cast in the genre of August Osage County, Dancing at Lughnasa, and The Ferryman. But while these huge theatrical successes were written by men, The Station firmly resides in a female voice.
