Les Miserables in St Louis Carrickmacross

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

In March Panic Sound and Lighting supplied the sound and lighting requirements for the school version of Les Miserables in Carrickmacross Co Monaghan.

The show was produced completely in the school, with help from the Music, Art, English and Home Economics Depts.

It was Directed by Sonia Sexton and the whole thing was co-ordinated by Sr Marie Byrne.

The Allen and Heath iLive once again did the trick, with the show being saved, as now we are doing it again in Glenties In Donegal!!

Guys and Dolls in St Macartan’s College

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Last night, Thursday, the guys (and dolls!!) from St Macartan’s were visited by the ladies from St Louis secondary school, who recently staged Thoroughly Modern Millie. The girls really enjoyed the production last night, my ears are still ringing  from the noise!!!

Guys and Dolls is finishing tonight, and well done to everyone concerned, and particularly to the head of the technical crew Caomh Tibby, who was 100% reliable and did a super job.
