I'm looking for the name and playwright of a play that I saw performed
at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in the Black Swan Theater in the
'80's.  It took place on the remote Irish coast.  My best recollection
is the name of the play was "Shore Marks", but my memory could be
fooling me.

Hello rwinz,

I think I found the play you were looking for!

Was it perhaps "Sea Marks" in 1986? The Playwright is listed as
Gardner McKay and the Director was Henry Woronicz. It was indeed
performed at the Black Swan Theatre.

I found this information listed at in the Oregon Shakespeare Festival
archives:

If this was not the play you were looking for, I have contacted the
Oregon Festival directly and asked them for some further information,
which I will post when I hear a reply from them.

You can find more about the playwright and the play here:
