But there was no cause for regret because the performance they gave was one of the best to date and no more could have been asked of cast and crew.

The hard work and dedication that got them through to the finals in the first place was still there and they can look back on a very memorable and productive year filled with praise and awards.

There is also an opportunity for anyone to make a private donation either through the group treasurer, Ann Goodfellow or directly from their bank account by following the donations link at the top of the page.

The play has been getting rave reviews wherever it is staged and to get to the All-Ireland finals is a great achievement.

However, the cost of taking the production to Wexford will be very draining on the groups limited resources and assistance will be very much needed.
Thank you.
