Culture Night: Theatre On-Demand - The Making of Mollie 20 Sep 2024

Filmed this year following a successful run of in-person shows at The Ark, The Making of Mollie by Anna Carey is available to stream on-demand into your classroom, home, community centre, and more this Culture Night – no matter where you live – as part of our Live From The Ark programme.

In 1912 Dublin, 14-year-old Mollie Carberry’s life is pretty boring. That is, until she discovers that her older sister Phyllis is a secret suffragette! Mollie starts to realise just how unfair the world can be - and she wants to do something about it. When Mollie and her friend Nora get involved in the movement, they must face an important question: just how far should a girl go for her beliefs?

This charming and witty new play invites you to step into a very different time and join Mollie as she begins her journey to find her place in the world.
