Season 1, Episode XI - Dublin 2 - Part I

Episode XI was recorded thanks to workplace guidelines, at a distance (sorry if it is a bit low!) all about the Dublin 2 and I, Laura Fitzachary had the pleasure of having the incomparable  actress Jennifer Laverty join me for a festive version of the show.   Jennifer is a colleague of mine who hails from Belfast where she studied English and Drama at Queens University. She has been a professional actress for almost 20 years training in the Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin and Stella Adler in New York.  After appearing in numerous productions in Theatre, Film and Television both in the UK and Ireland you may recognise her from: Love/Hate, Ripper Street and the TV series Titanic- Blood and Steel. No stranger to stage or screen she was perfect for our Christmas Special! Straying a little from our usual format we only focused on parts of Dublin 2, examining the postal districts of Dublin a little closer. From theatre stages becoming nationalist training grounds to Christmas Lights sparking national outrage, December's episode took a festive look at the area's 'drama-tic' history as we treaded the boards of the history of south Dublin's inner city.
