​Úna Clancy

​

"Una Clancy gives a stunning performance at once serious and hilarious."   

                                                           Arts International - Bina Sharif : Tim McGillicuddy's "Herself  "                                                                  

"Una Clancy is terrific – clip and obtusely snarky. She even moves the way she sounds."   

                                                                  Woman Around Town  : "Herself - Excellent Theater . "                          

 

"Mary's early talk of ghosts sets the stage...a splendid Una Clancy"       

                                                          Thinking Theater NYC : Priests, Paternity and Pub Preoccupy 'Herself"

​

"Clancy embodies a fascinating force, with her husky voice, smiling face that seems to be about to joke, and elegant, delicate expressions of hurt, pain or anger. She carries the play perfectly.”

​

​

“As embodied by Clancy, Lady Gregory comes across as a warm and wry figure with a sharp wit and reserves of passion and curiosity.”

“Úna Clancy has the most difficult part, narrating her own life, and anchors the show with an iron fist wrapped in a velvet glove.”

​

 

“Ciaran O’Reilly ...is blessed to have Úna Clancy portraying Gregory, with colleagues portraying a host of real-life people. The four actors are terrific and throw themselves into the biographical narrative with guts and gusto.”

​

 

"As in O'Casey's two previous plays, it's the women who most fully reflect the Irish soul; Úna Clancy, Clare O'Malley, and Maryann Plunkett lead an outstanding cast of fourteen."

                                                             The New Yorker The Plough and the Stars

​

 

"Perhaps one of the finest roles in the play is that of a woman who loses her son to the revolutionary movement.  Hers carries an aching monologue, here performed, unsentimentalized, out of earth and sorrow, by Una Clancy."

​

 

"Una Clancy portrayed Mary so persuasively that she had me mistaking the performer for the character she was playing."
