Anna Sheils-McNamee grew up with a dad who couldn’t see. For her, it was nothing out of the ordinary, yet for others her dad would either be classed as a ‘hero’ or treated as a ‘child’.

Inspired by her life, Anna wrote a play that breaks down boundaries and challenges the infantalisation of people with disabilities.

Chatting with RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley, Anna explains what we can expect from her play and why it’s so important to open dialogue about sight loss.

‘My Dad’s Blind’ will run from 18th – 22nd September at the Project Arts Centre in Dublin.
