Description

Rough Girls by Tara Lynne O'Neil is an original play that tells the untold story of Belfast's first all-female football team. In 1917-1921, these women stepped onto a pitch in shorts and footie boots, defying societal norms to prove a point. The play chronicles their courage and determination as they raised thousands for those returning from war. Set against the backdrop of a city divided by war but united by sport, this ambitious production features an impressive ensemble cast with live music that captures the heartbeat of Belfast at the time. Based on true events, the story will resonate with the history of the city and chime with recent equality movements across sports and culture. Published to coincide with its world premiere at Belfast's Lyric Theatre in September 2021, this edition brings the powerful story of Rough Girls to life.
