This original multi-media Theatre of Witness production will be performed and created with women whose lives were affected by the Troubles. Based on their true stories, the production explores the lives and roles of women who were; active participants, witnesses, survivors, mothers, grandmothers, daughters, wives and partners. What are these untold stories?

Theatre of Witness is a form of performance developed by founder and artistic director Teya Sepinuck, that gives voice to those who have been marginalised, forgotten or are invisible in society. Their true, life stories, performed by the people themselves, are shared onstage so that audiences can collectively bear witness to issues of suffering, redemption and social justice. ‘I once knew a girl…’ is the second production created by The Playhouse Theatre of Witness Programme and follows last year’s successful tour of ‘We Carried Your Secrets’.
