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.

This week we are involved with the musical in St Macartan’s College, Monaghan. Their production is Guys and Dolls, a lighthearted story of romance and gambling!! As part of a program to teach a little bit about live theatre sound and lighting to a group of transition year students, we supervise the operation of the sound and lighting systems for the musical.
The show opened last night with great energy, and runs tonight (Wednesday), Thursday and Friday.
