Putting peace centre stage

PROMOTING peace in Northern Ireland and along the border is the aim of ‘The Memory Project’, which uses drama, theatre and television documentary to understand the past and build pathways for the future.

The project has been launched by Dublin’s Smashing Times Theatre Company, in partnership with Belfast’s Corrymeela Community and Dublin’s High Wire Limited (a TV production company).

The project, funded by the EU’s Peace 111 Programme, is in association with CAIN (Conflict Archive on the Internet) and the University of Ulster INCORE International Conflict Research Institute. ‘The Memory Project’ will be filmed for a documentary.
