Thurles Musical Society host highly-anticipated DVD showing of Big Fish

A lovely evening and social get-together was held at The Monks bar on Saturday last when the long-awaited DVD of Big Fish was viewed by a large attendance.

It was great to re-live the show for all those involved, especially those on stage and back stage who would not have seen all of the various scenes in the show. It proved to be a real treat.

The catch-up was great too and having spent so much time together for the first quarter of the year, members inevitably go in their own direction after the curtain comes down on the production and do not get to meet up too often thereafter.

So, Saturday evening proved to be a real treat and there was tremendous fun, chat and pride at what was witnessed when the DVD came to an end – Big Fish was a great success for Thurles Musical Society and the DVD endorsed that view with everybody agreeing that it had been a great show.

Conversation, as is to be expected, turned to what is next for the Society and in the coming weeks the committee will get together and draw up a shortlist of shows for 2025.

Director Oliver Hurley will return to Thurles again for that show and considering the high-quality productions witnessed over the last few years, TMS members are indeed thrilled that he has agreed to come back.

The Annual General Meeting of the Society is fixed for Thursday, May 30 in the Premier Hall. All members will be asked for their views and opinions on the running of the Society.

All are welcome to come along – more details on this will be furnished in the coming weeks.
