About this event
November, Dublin, 1963.
Hundreds flock to see JFK in the Phoeno, the city mourns the dead of the collapsing tenements, housewives protest the Turnover-Tax and sexism is rife… but never mind all that.
Mary Connors has just won two tickets to see The Beatles, THE BLEEDINʼ BEATLES!
One catch – Mary’s ma insists she brings her cousin Brigid along. The girls set off at odds into a city that’s heaving with Beatlemania. A stolen bike, Brigidʼs burning secret and a riot on Abbey Street unites them with a new bond stronger than the love of any fellaʼs haircut.
This comedic two-person play journeys back in time to honour the resilience of joy amongst teenagers in 1960’s Catholic Ireland.
