"On Baile's Strand" is a one-act play by W.B. Yeats, exploring themes of fate, identity, and the natural world. The story revolves around Cuchulain, a legendary Irish hero, who confronts his destiny in a tragic setting. As he faces off against the forces of his fate, he grapples with his inner conflicts and the implications of his choices. Set on the shores of Baile's Strand, the play captures the tension between personal desire and the inevitable pull of destiny, ultimately reflecting on the nature of heroism and the human condition in the face of conflict and loss.

W. B. Yeats (1865-1939) was born in Dublin and was educated in Ireland and England. An Irish poet, and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature, he was instrumental in the development of a national Irish theatre - and in particular the founding of the Abbey Theatre. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923.
