Returning to JHISS in response to popular demand, this powerful performance takes us back to 1970s Belfast, where young Danielle navigates a life as dangerous at home as it is in the streets. A story packed with tears, laughter and heart. 'Becoming Marvellous' is a triumph in survival and resilience.
