After the success of Glass Mask Theatre’s debut production ‘Idlewild’ by Jimmy Murphy, Smock Alley’s company-in-residence invites you back to the Boys’ School for Jimmy’s latest play, The Seamster’s Daughter.

Through Megan’s story Glass Mask presents a challenging and conflicting drama that looks at consent, choice and the right to life.
