Julie

Lenadoon, West Belfast, 1981

Bernadette is 14. She loves her Mammy, Gene Kelly, Doris Day, and Julie Garland. She shares a bedroom with her wee sister – Julie.

Julie loves Sheena Easton, Annie Lennox, and Adam Ant. Julie isn’t too bothered there’s women out banging bin lids – one of the hunger strikers just died. She’s more concerned with sorting a new pair of Topaz tights for the Horn Drive disco. She is fourteen after all…

Julie Livingstone was fatally shot by a plastic bullet while crossing the road near her home. Seen through the eyes of Julie’s sister Bernadette, this powerful new play follows a teenage girl navigating her own grief, her family’s loss and their struggle for justice.
