Lindsey Wilson University faculty, staff and students visited the world-famous Abbey Theatre in Dublin, Ireland, for a backstage tour before attending a centennial production of Sean O'Casey's classic play "The Plough and the Stars" about the 1916 Easter Rising.

To prepare for the March 1-9, 2026, trip, which was funded in part by a university grant and a gift from the late honorary alumnus Dr. Jerry Westerfield of Russell Springs, the students spent the first seven weeks of the spring semester studying Irish art, culture, film and literature.
