Making a Mark

OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Shaun Dunne 

  • Author Notes

    Co-created with Mark Smith and Aisling Byrne.

  • Synopsis

    Mark has competed in the World Games, played King Lear before packed houses and packed bags for 20 years in Tesco’s… But that’s not even half the story. Part interview, part self-led confessional, this is Mark’s life and he’s ready to take a seat at the table. Ambition, disruption, grief and frustration. He hopes this show will be the making of him.
