Sunday Miscellany for charity

A 'Miscellany on Sunday' in Phena Bermingham's home will be held on November 13 to raise funds for the Michael Garry House in Newbridge for homeless people.

Kilcullen Drama Group are among the guest artists already committed to the event, and members will perform extracts and sketches from some of their productions.

In addition, 'Euro Star' Pete Fagan will be along during the afternoon, and local musician Louis Moran.

"I'm hoping to have many other entertainments, including local authors reading from their works," says Phena, who also anticipates that many other people will do their 'party pieces' in aid of the charity, which she supports every year.

"They'll get mulled wine and mince pies in return, along with good chat and good music," she promises, which is as good a way to anticipate the Christmas season as any.
