Freedom of the City
Freedom of the City By Brian Friel Directed by Doug Bennett Season 3 2008: 2 September to 20 September Victorian Drama League "Best Production' winner 2008 Set in Derry in 1970, in the aftermath of a Civil Rights meeting, this play conjures the events of Bloody Sunday.

Reports and rumours exaggerate their 'occupation' of forty armed rebels and they are shot by British soldiers as they surrender. The play documents the victims' final hours and a subsequent tribunal of inquiry into their deaths.
