In the wake of a violent outburst by a young person,

the staff at a youth service in Dublin are attempting to move on.

But healing is hard when you’re on the floor and out the door.

Healing is hard when your wounds are still raw…


Made in consultation with youth workers from the north inner-city, Restoration is a new play from the award-winning Shaun Dunne (Rapids, Making a Mark) directed by Darren Thornton (A Date for Mad Mary), exploring the politics of restorative practice and youth work in Ireland.
