SOULS, SHADOWS AND SECRETS at The Everyman, Cork

This breathtaking new play gives voice to three of Ireland’s historical figures: Constance Markievicz, Michael Collins and Éamon de Valera. Against the backdrop of the personal tale of a young Irish female living in the years between the 1916 Easter Rising and the early years of the Free State, this one-of-a-kind play presents a dramatic exploration of how we remember, and struggle to understand our historical predecessors, and their contributions to our contemporary story. It is a universal tale of recollection, revolution and romance.

“[The performance was] absolutely superb – beautifully drawn script, perfectly understated acting, seamlessly and poetically matched with stunning archive footage. It was historically interesting and visually bewitching.” – Fiona Clark, Director of the Cork International Film Festival
