Roisin
Róisin (Rose) although fictional, was inspired by actual events.
It’s the story of an ordinary Australian-born woman of Irish descent with a unique character, who showed others by her positive determination and entrepreneurial flair, how to live their dream and become extraordinary.
It’s a spirited woman’s adventure that begins in the era of the Great Depression, through the torment of WWII and into the post-war economic boom years. During decades of daring, her quest was often challenged by the established norms of the day, where society measured success or failure by the gender of an individual.
