Hi, I’m Sorcha. From as young as I can remember, I don’t think I ever stopped creating stories and putting on countless shows that my family had to endure. It was no surprise to anyone then when I ended up pursing a creative course like Film and Broadcasting. I’ve always been passionate about my interests and pursuing a career in something that wasn’t creative was never on the cards.
Over the course of the last four years, I have found my passion in Broadcasting. As I don’t ever stop talking, it was no surprise when I specialised in Radio, however using my voice to help make an impact with important topics means I am putting my nonstop talking to good use. I think I have discovered my area of interest due to the reoccurring theme across my works created these past years. I am passionate about creating art that comments on human experiences. The kind that has an impact and makes you stop and think, with the goal that people listening or watching can connect to my works. I hope it leaves them thinking long after they have finished listening. My hopes for my future is to continue to create and connect with audiences through works that have
impact

Somewhere to Stand
Somewhere to Stand is an audio documentary that explores the importance belonging and connection for gay men within the world of the GAA. What started off as a documentary to examine gay men’s experiences with homophobia in GAA evolved into a more nuanced exploration of identity, community, and connection.
Through personal accounts, it follows different experiences of being a gay man in GAA; from stepping away, to staying, to creating new spaces. Featuring voices including Dónal Óg Cusack and members of Na Laochra Aeracha, the documentary reveals the complexity of a sport often defined by tradition and community. Rather than offering a single narrative, it highlights how the same space can be experienced in very different ways. At its core, Somewhere to Stand reflects on how men connect through shared experience, and why having a place to stand beside others, whether in traditional teams or new ones, remains so
important.
