Christmas show on Saturday

A Christmas show in Kilcullen Town Hall Theatre this weekend will raise funds for Barretstown, where seriously ill children from all over Europe can have a holiday which gives them back some lost childhood.

The Lost Toys script was written by Maureen Ward from Calverstown, director of the Talented Kids Performing Arts School, who is also Head of Musical Theatre at the Royal Irish Academy of Music.

The show will comprise music, song, dance and drama on a seasonal theme, and the performers are children and young people from the mid-Kildare and West Wicklow area.

Performances on Saturday at 2pm and 5pm. Tickets 10 euros for adults and 7 euros for under 12, and can be booked at 087-2480348 or 045-485464.
