Images: "Sisters" the musical, World Premiere at Mill Theatre Dundrum

We had an absolute ball on Saturday Night at the world premiere of Sisters, the new Irish musical which is running at the Mill Theatre Dundrum.

Set in 1971, against the backdrop of Catholic Ireland and the rise of the Irish Women's Liberation Movement, the show revolves around the story of a young single mother Bernadette Boland, shunned by her community as she embarks on her journey of self-empowerment.

Check out some images from the opening night...
