Covid forces cancellation of play at Cork Midsummer Festival
The Wakefires' run at Elizabeth Fort for Cork Midsummer Festival has been cut short by Covid.
Cork Midsummer Festival has had to cancel one of its flagship drama events due to Covid-related issues. The Wakefires, an exploration of sexual violence in the War of Independence and Civil War era, had just a couple of preview shows at Elizabeth Fort near Barrack Street last week before performances were halted.
On Tuesday, June 21, organisers contacted ticket-holders to announce that further performances had been cancelled, and refunds had been issued.
