About the Show

A solo show from Geraldine Hughes about her childhood growing up in war-torn Belfast in the 1980s.

These stories bear witness to the many faces trying to live a normal life amidst the violence born of the longstanding conflict between Catholics and Protestants. At thirteen, Hughes temporarily left The Troubles to star in a TV movie, Children in the Crossfire only to return home to a different kind of confusion and pain. A digital recording of the 2020 production.

Well staged, Strong acting, Intense, Thought-provoking, Absorbing

See it if you like auto-bio works. Hughes has had a fascinating life which she shares in vivid detail. Important lessons about civil conflict.

Don't see it if you are upset by stories of poverty and bloodshed.

Don't see it if It can be disturbing like many civil strife movies, plays etc can be.
