Axis Ballymun is set to unleash a swashbuckling tale of adventure, rebellion and swordfights in their flagship show for Spring 2016, Granuaile, Pirate Queen.

 

The play, directed by Veronica Coburn, is a piece of interactive storytelling for all the family about Ireland’s Pirate Queen, Granuaile, otherwise known as Grace O’Malley.
