Dear Cathy,

It’s 10.30pm on Tuesday night. I have just finished your recent email. You are now on the way to recovery. You are here now as you should have been and will be until the day you die. So whilst I struggle slowly onward and upward, you are already there.

Love Deborah

Following the hugely successful premiere of The Big Deal at Kilkenny Arts Festival 2011 Una McKevitt (Victor and Gord, 565+) brings us an extraordinary real life story of two women who knew from a very young age that they were born into the wrong bodies. Scripted from original material provided by the contributors – including journals, poems, songs and interviews –The Big Deal charts the incredible personal gains and losses each has made to become the women they have always been.

“Moving and sometimes stunning.” The Irish Times

“The subjects in McKevitt’s important new work remind us there are many voices yet to be heard.” Irish Theatre Magazine
