Phone 087 4707652 for this week's A Skull in Connemara


A reminder to local fans of Kilcullen Drama Group that tickets for their production of A Skull in Connemara are available by phoning 087 4707652, writes Brian Byrne. The group are presenting Martin McDonagh's dark comedy in the Town Hall Theatre from Monday 22 April to Friday 26 April. The play is said by some to be the author's funniest. 
The story is set in the overcrowded Leenane cemetery, where the local gravedigger's job includes exhumation of remains after seven years and pulverising them to dust with a hammer so as to make room for more burials. Which is all right until he opens the grave of a friend's wife and finds the bones are missing. Historical rumours that the woman had been murdered are resurrected ... 
The cast comprises Maurice O'Mahony, Siobhan Murphy, Alan Clarke and Josh  Kelly. It is directed by Eilis Phillips. The Friday will be the Gala Night, in aid of Kilcullen Gospel Choir's fundraising for Relay for Life. Wine reception as usual from 7.30pm. The play begins at 8pm sharp each night.
Nobody ever leaves a Kilcullen Drama Group play without having really enjoyed their night. PHONE 087 4707652 NOW!
