Christy (Bullet) Brady wants to be the fastest runner in his street. When the Easter Rising kicks off revolution is the last thing on his mind. <br /><br /><em>The Messenger</em> looks at the impact of the Rising on ordinary families like the Brady's. The play offers the opportunity to take a wider view of children's lives in conflict today. For children age 8+ <br /><br /><strong>A free drama workshop</strong> exploring the play's themes was provided to County Kilkenny schools, along with a <strong>Teachers' Resource Pack,</strong> created by local historian and teacher Ann Murtagh. This initiative was funded by <a href="https://www.kilkennycoco.ie/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kilkenny County Council</a> as part of its <em>2016 Centenary Programme.</em>
