Enter a world where the sepia tones of hidden history and the technicolour of live theatre collide. Using documentary material, witness statements, court depositions and newspaper articles relating to the case of Bridie Kirk, who died in Cork City in 1939 as a result of an illegal abortion, this play is about trying to find a way to tell a story that for 75 years has gone untold. 


Performers: Noelle O'Regan, George Hanover, Roísín O'Neill, Nicholas Kavanagh and Shane Casey.
