“I hurt others. I rip and tear into them and it feels good, I won’t pretend otherwise.”

-Delia Frances Kenagy, HEEL

My original full-length play, HEEL, was selected to be performed as a staged reading at the WIT (Women In Theater) Factor Festival at the IRT Theater in New York in May of 2026

Plot Synopsis

A sadistic female CEO abducts a failed actor, turned drama therapist, and collars him to the wall of her apartment. Interspliced with violent dream sequences and a rotating cast of desperate corporate workers, taboo gender-based desires are confronted, and prior evils are unearthed by a pair that threatens to either complete each other or tear one another apart.
