The amazing Belfast based Rainbow Factory School of Performing Arts staged an original play with music based on Mary’s life to celebrate the Trust’s 50th Birthday.

Written and directed by Rainbow Factory’s fabulous artistic director Maire Campbell and involving young people from Youth Action NI, the play received standing ovations.

There was joy, laughter and a few tears of emotion as the play took the audience on a theatrical journey and artistic representation of the early years of Mary’s life culminating in her Olympic Gold at Munich in 1972.
