Last day of rehearsals

Tomorrow is the last day of rehearsals. We are very excited about bringing the play before an audience. This has been quite an enjoyable process. Thanks to all who have helped in any way.

See you at Nun's Island.

Zita & John.

Update: Galway Theatre Festival 'seat sale' and fundraiser quiz

The Galway Theatre Festival is launching a ‘seat sale’ at noon, Monday October 12. Tickets for selected shows will be sold at the Galway Arts Centre, 47 Dominick Street, for less than half price: only €3.99 each for a limited time!

--

If you can’t wait until October 12 to start supporting the arts, Galway Theatre Festival are holding a fundraiser table quiz on Thursday October 8 in the Galway Arms on Dominick Street. Don’t expect an average quiz night, as the questions will centre around music, film, literature, visual arts and, of course, theatre. Tables of four cost €20. Prizes will reflect the artistic theme of the night and there will be complimentary finger food to keep the brain ticking over.
