THE FREEDOM OF THE CITY

COCKPIT THEATRE

During a peaceful demonstration three civilians find themselves trapped in the Londonderry Mayor's office. Outside, the world uses their plight to paint them a terrorists or martyrs.

Inspired by true events, Brian Friel's 1973 classic is still potent, especially in the light of the 2010 Saville Inquiry which declared the Bloody Sunday shootings unjustifiable.

A cast of just three actors play all 17 parts in this production which asks the question what is the reality and how does it become history?
