Big music interest in Games

The organisers of the first Kilcullen music and drama entries for the Community Games have been somewhat overwhelmed with acts.

A total of 29 entries, mostly solo singers, will take to the stage in the Town Hall Theatre on Saturday 24 January, to vie for a place in the County Finals in February.

Organiser Anne Quigley has expressed her appreciation for the help from the St Conleth’s Community Games group in Newbridge in getting the Kilcullen entry under way, as well as the local help from Evelyn O’Sullivan, operator of the Drama Dynamics drama school.

The event will run from 10am-1pm, an extension of an hour from the original plan.

There will also be an entry in the drama category in the County Final.
