Foyle Film Festival

McLaughlins 100 by Dave Duggan is the film of a site-specific theatre event, created for McLaughlin’s Hardware Shop, William Street, Derry, to celebrate 100 years of the family business.

The film combines the aesthetics of film drama, community video, documentary and live performance to deliver an engaging, imaginative treatment of a century of indigenous commercial resilience. Actors and audiences promenade the narrow aisles of the beautiful hardware shop, filling them with stories and songs that animate the passing of the century, by showing scenes from the future of the business, started in 1913.

A further screening of McLaughlins 100 at The Gasyard Centre on the night of the ‘Opening’ of Bluebell Arts exhibition: Monday 25th Nov @ 6pm and will be followed by a question and answer session with writer and director Dave Duggan.
