This church on St Stephen’s Green will host a day of talks and music, beginning with a comparison between Constance Markievicz and Hanna Sheehy Skeffington by historian Margaret Ward. The story of Margaret and Mary Brigid Pearse will be told in speech and music by Mary and Teresa O’Donnell, while Soprano Michelle O’Rourke and composer Simon O’Connor present a suite of songs for voice, piano, bass and percussion, focusing on the personal stories of the wives of the 1916 rebel leaders.
