Lies Where It Falls

Following his critically acclaimed performance as David Trimble in the sold-out production of Agreement, Ruairi Conaghan, brings his powerful solo show to the stage.

In 1974, Judge Rory Conaghan was shot dead by the IRA on his Belfast doorstep whilst holding his 9-year-old daughter's hand. Ruairi Conaghan is Judge Conaghan’s nephew and namesake. His memories of the murder led to a physical and mental collapse that threatened his life. Lies Where It Falls uses song, poetry, humour, and Shakespeare to tell a courageous story of recovery with life-affirming, soul-bearing honesty.
