BREAKING: Tipperary parish hall to host 'powerful production' of well-known play
The Buzz is Back in Boherlahan- Bianconi Festival 150
Readers may recall a review in this publication some months ago of The Weir by Conor McPherson, staged in New Inn by the Black Fort Players.
If you missed it then, there’s good news!
You now have another opportunity to see this powerful production by them, this time in a new venue: Boherlahan Parish Hall.
As part of the Celebrating Bianconi 150 Festival, the play will be performed on Friday, September 19, and Saturday, September 20 at 8pm in Boherlahan.
Boherlahan has a proud tradition of drama and theatrical performance, and this staging of The Weir will surely evoke memories of the many outstanding productions hosted by the community over the years.
It also marks a significant moment, as Boherlahan prepares to embark on major refurbishment work in the hall in the coming months and the Weir will bring the curtain down on the old hall and its many memories.
Recently, the cast paid a visit to Tom Hennessy’s pub in the village which really helped them all to get in role!
The Weir is directed by Tom Fitzgerald who also plays the part of barman Brendan Byrne.
It also stars Liam Ó Maoldhomhnaigh, Katy Ryan, Denis Browne and Kieran Heaney.
A great evening’s entertainment is promised.
