Rehearsals are well under way for this year’s Transition Year production of a Mid Summer Nights’s Dream (with a twist) with over 50 students taking to the stage under the watchful eye of directors Ann Blake and Niamh Bowen.
A Mid
Summer Night’s Dream is a tale of two worlds, of fairies and humans. In Ann
Blake and Marie Boylan’s re-write of this classic Shakespearean play, the
fairy world is viewed through the folklore of Ireland, where the Irish fairies
trick and fool the royal Athenians in a fun and fast paced comedy of mistaken
identity, marital discord, and pure tomfoolery.
Our
Transition Year show this year, will be staged in the exquisite surroundings of
Dance Limerick, a repurposed church set in the architectural beauty of
Limerick’s Georgian Square - St. John's Square.
This play
brings music and magic, comedy and crazy, to the stage, showcasing the best of
transition year talent, accompanied by live music and stunning costumes and
props, all bespoke for this show.
Performance
dates are Wednesday January 16th and Thursday January 17th
2019.
Show
starts at 8pm.
Tickets are available from the school office 061- 451447. Adults
