Between 14 December 1921 and 7 January 1922, members of Dáil Éireann met in private and public session to debate the Articles of Agreement for a Treaty between Great Britain and Ireland. The debates divided the Dáil and led to the Civil War a conflict that divided the nation.

This adaptation by the Acting for Stage and Screen Course of Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa, will cover key moments in the debates through the words of the participants and will also feature contributions by Cork TDs.

Adapted by historian Gerry White and directed by Jon Whitty, it will be an ideal experience for students in Cork who are studying this important event in our history.

There will be a Q&A from CSN Teacher, Jon Whitty and historian, Gerry White on the 16th December.

On Friday the 17th the event will be recorded by Wombat Media.

*Please note that face mask must be worn during the performance. Contact tracing and vaccine certs will need to be provided for access to the event.*
