Elizabeth Cosgrove is staring through the shop window at the denim jacket soon to be hers. Conor McKeating looks on as his brother frantically sprints down the hill towards their car, while Mari Jennings is waiting at home, by herself, for her husband who she believes to be at a Tyrone match across town. It is the 15th of August, 1998, 17 seconds past noon, a normal, busy Saturday on Lower Market Street. In 43 seconds many lives will be changed forever. This Irish play looks back at the terror and tragedy of the day of the Omagh bombing through the eyes of three people. Three stories told through a series of beautifully interwoven monologues reveal the heartache, remorse and regrets of that day and the hope for new beginnings.
