Bradán Players present "Little Gem" by Elaine Murphy

DOORS OPEN 7.30PM. EVENT STARTS 8PM.
Finish time is estimated.
This is a seated event.

One year can bring extraordinary change; just ask Amber, Lorraine and Kay, three generations of North Dublin women who find themselves suddenly facing the unexpected.

Young Amber’s case of indigestion – or perhaps it’s a brutal hangover? – grows into something more, while her mother Lorraine discovers salsa dancing after an incident at work leads to therapist-suggested self-care.

Grandmother Kay, “on the wrong side of sixty, but not dead yet,” struggles to take care of a personal itch while adjusting to life as a caretaker for her beloved Gem. As the year moves forward, the women confront their individual challenges with courage and humor, finding strength in one another and discovering the beauty and complexity of family.

Starring Stevie Ní Liam, Helena Stout & Michelle Reade, and directed by Réidín Dunne, all three actors were nominated for best actress with Stout winning the award at Roscommon Drama Festival, and Dunne winning best director.
