The aim of this blog is to explore theatre and the performing arts and the sharing of my art.
Below are pictures from Dramsoc NUIG's 2014 production of Alan Ayckbourne's Callisto 5 for which I received an ISDA nomination for best lighting. The production was also nominated for best costume and makeup along with winning best supporting actor (Joe Power) and best sound design (Ronan Gallagher et al).

I was also privileged to be the director of NUIG's Sweet Bird of Youth by Tennessee Williams which also represented Dramsoc at the 2014 ISDA festival, bringing home two nominations for best supporting actress, Hazel Doyle and Aoife Corry. Below are these ladies in action plus my two stars, Julie Breen and Ryan Hehir. This play, set in the late 1950's, explores the meaning of time to humans, depicting an array of characters who are all damaged in some way and who have all lost time and youth.
