The Compass Project

Grand Opera House Belfast


Tom worked alongside Matt Faris as the co director/facilitator on this this creative heritage project for the Grand Opera House. During the project Tom and Matt worked with community groups across North, South, East and West Belfast, exploring the city’s rich, colourful and diverse heritage.
Through facilitated workshops, participants captured the essence of each area’s heritage, by sharing their experiences and memories of the past along with their hopes for the future.
This play written by Gary Wilson was first performed by actresses Faith Dawson, Christine Clare and Louise Parker on Saturday 1st April 2023 in The Studio at the Grand Opera House. This project was supported by Belfast City Council.
