The IFTA winning actress, who has had two best-selling novels published with Penguin, is most well known for her work internationally as an actor and writer. Amy’s newest TV comedy series Finding Joy, which she also created and wrote, recently wrapped back in August and is currently being broadcast on RTÉ. ‘Finding Joy’ is produced by Treasure Entertainment for RTÉ in Ireland and Acorn TV in the UK, and is due for release in late 2018.
Amy joins Rebecca O’Flanagan, Producer/Creator of Finding Joy for a panel discussion on the journey they took together to bring this project to fruition, 'An exploration of the journey to 'Finding Joy'.
Guests include representatives from RTE, BBC, TG4 and Screen Ireland. The summit is a further acknowledgement of the vibrant TV industry here in the West of Ireland.
