A Lot Has Happened

The last post was about the auditions for Move Over Mrs Markham - it was cast with four new male members Eoin Langford, Jim Carroll, Ben Mulhern and Andrew Deering with Hilary Rose making her LPP stage debut alongside Sinead Fitzpatrick, Sarah Louise Cleary and Michelle Reid.
What a blessed production, from assembling such a stellar cast, through the costuming by Dorothy, Stage Design and Construction by Maud and Roger, through to the A. Rankin DVD and the secretary finding the perfect 1970's chair in a skip.
A magnificient response frm our audiences, with the economic clouds darkening it was just the ticket.
The Bar B Q was for once blessed with sunshine. Adrian Chapman returned to impressively catch Stephen McWhite at short mid wicket in a rousing game of cricket. Jan impressed with the bat, Sinead told the bowlers wehre she wanted it. Eric's othodox batting was impressive too.
The Colleen Bawn is due to ride again in the Deering barn in Dunlavin, Andrew Deering will take over from Glynner who played Hardress in November.
Don't forget the DLI summer school - Noeleen is definitely going, Andrew Rankin, JP Swaine and John McCarthy are also making interested noises.
Tara Power was a powerful al fresco Cleopatra in St Stepehn's Green and was a great interviewee on the Myles Dungan show.
