Of This Brave Time 2016. If after years, if years find us together,how we shall tell each other the old taleof this brave time…‘The Sentimentalist’ – Tomás Mac DonaghWhat questions would you ask if you could speak to someone who experienced Easter 1916 first hand?How did it feel? Why were you there? Were you scared? Of This Brave Time is based on eye witness testimonies, taken from Fearghal McGarry’s book Rebels: Voices from the Easter Rising. Jimmy Murphy has woven these stories together, giving voice to those who lived through the Rising.
