Why Watch Myra's Story

Myra's Story, a moving piece that was a huge success in Ireland and at the Edinburgh Fringe, follows a homeless lady on the streets of Dublin. Myra's Story is a must-see drama that takes viewers on an incredible emotional whirlwind ride and is full of heart and laughter. The play, written by renowned Irish playwright Brian Foster (The Trophy Collector, The Most Haunted House in Derry), is based on his earlier acclaimed piece, Maire: A Woman of Derry.

Myra, the protagonist and an alcoholic who lives on the streets of Dublin, walks us through the sequence of incidents that brought her to the bench where we first encounter her.
