Local Notes: Hurling finals, 'Da' brings the house down and activities in the centre
The performance of 'Da' was extremely well attended in Ballymacarbry Community Centre.
Last Friday evening Ballymacarbry was treated to another night of amazing drama by Brideview Drama Tallow. A full house meant the pressure was on for the first ever public performance of 'Da' by this group.
This presented no problem for this group, however as they delivered yet another unforgettable experience for the Ballymacarbry audience. A standing ovation was a fitting tribute to the group at the end of the night. All connected to this event in Ballymacarbry would like to sincerely thank Brideview Drama Tallow for the making the huge effort to bring this play to our area, it is enormously appreciated, especially given that all proceeds from the event go to such worthy causes.
We wish the group all the luck in the world as they bring this production back home to Tallow for performances on February 6th, 7th, 8th and 15th. For anyone who could not source a ticket for the Ballymacarbry show, get yourself to Tallow.
Sincere thanks to all who purchased tickets, helped with the set-up of the hall, served food and teas, sold raffle tickets, stewarded in the carpark, sold tickets, donated raffle prizes, erected road signs and flyers, and those who carried out ushering duties on the night - you all made this night what it was, an outstanding success
