In the Shadow or in the Shelter

In the Shadow or in the ShelterT02138711581
"Ireland and Britain live both in the shadow and in the shelter of one another, and so it has been since the dawn of history" - Irish President Michael D Higgins, 2014. The relationship between Ireland and Britain has never been anything but complex. The Easter Rising of 1916, and the creation of the Irish Republic that followed, did nothing to simplify that connection. In The Shadow Or The Shelter is a festival of new plays examining how this entanglement of nations, with all its many contradictions, has shaped the lives of the Irish men and women who arrived in Britain over the past century.
