Drama Workshops based on the Glenveagh Evictions

The infamous Glenveagh evictions took place in April 1861. 

In 1865 the third and final trial of Francis Bradley took place in Lifford Courthouse. An evictee himself, he stood accused of the murder of Adam Grierson, one of the stewards who performed the evictions. The project proposes to have two workshop days in the Spring where  community actors, drawn from an open call, will work with a professional director and the script writer, Kieran Kelly. to develop the script and make it ready for public performance.

Please note that the details of events listed above are provided by the relevant Local Authorities.
