May-17-74 Anatomy of a Massacre

A film about the Dublin and Monaghan bombings.

Join us for a very special screening of this powerful film as we remember the victims and celebrate the remarkable contribution of Margaret Urwin and Justice for the Forgotten in the pursuit of justice and truth for those affected by the bombings.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Margaret Urwin, Secretary of Justice for the Forgotten; Maureen O’Sullivan, former TD; Fergus Dowd, producer of the film; Bernie McNally, a survivor of the bombing; and Aidan Shields, whose mother was among those killed in the bombing.

Directed by Joe Lee and produced by Fergus Dowd.

A sharp, honest two-voice story about disability, identity, and taking back your power.

From an ambulance school bus to Trinity College Dublin, Full Circle is funny, political, and deeply human — a story about refusing to be defined by limitation and owning your own narrative.

Developed as part of the Page To Stage project with the Sean O’Casey Arts Festival 2025.

📅 Wednesday, April 22nd
🕜 1:30 PM
📍 The Sean O’Casey Theatre, East Wall
