"The Long-Winded Lady Speaks Again"

"RADA-trained Irish-American actress Kelly Letourneau was surely born to play Brennan. The audience – including Brennan’ nieces Yvonne Jerrold and Suzanne Maher, over from Britain, and Jackie Bolger, wife of racehorse trainer Jim Bolger (Maeve’s cousin), with her daughter Una and other family members – loved her performance as she brought to life some of Brennan’s celebrated New Yorker columns. Now collected in the book The Long-Winded Lady, these included the keenly observed From the Hotel Earle."
