‘Working Over By’ is an exclusive performance set in the 1950's.

This tells the story of Marie as she travels from Donegal to Scotland in search of work.

The pain of parting from her beloved father is balanced by the excitement of the journey ahead- the anticipation of the new experiences, unfamiliar places, and the people she will meet along the way.

Come along and receive a free 100-page publication which complements our new exhibition ‘Working Over By’. The event happens every Wednesday for 5 weeks from 16th July for 5 weeks until August 13th.
