Dolly West's Kitchen

Presented by Siena University Theatre

At Beaudoin Theatre (Foy Hall, Siena University)

Dolly West's Kitchen by Frank McGuinness is a rich, Chekhovian drama set in WWII-era Ireland. As British and American soldiers enter the West family's neutral household, tensions erupt over love, loyalty, and identity. Dolly, a worldly woman returned from Italy, anchors the emotional storm swirling through her kitchen. With biting humor and poignant revelations, the play explores fractured relationships, national pride, and the quiet revolutions that unfold behind closed doors.
