Immaculate is based on a true story of an artist struggling to piece together the life of her uncle Anthony, who tragically died in the early 90s and whose cause of death is unknown. Through Immaculate, the artist is determined to reclaim his life, get the justice he deserves and celebrate equality, in this powerful song cycle performance featuring music by Stuart Robinson.

Director Patrick J O’Reilly said: “Immaculate is a powerful tribute to our history of inequality and shame, a celebration of where we are today and a call to action for a future that recognises everyone as equal in our society.”
