THEATRE PRESENTS CHAPTER 2 BY NIALL
SIMONS
with Deirdre O’Meara, Gerry Farrelly
and Donna McDermott
Beezneez present Neil Simon’s
beautiful play Chapter Two. Both heartbreaking
and hilarious, Chapter Two tells the
story of George Schneider who, trying
to come to grips with the death of his
wife, is introduced by his meddling
brother, Leo, to a recently divorced
actress, Jennie. It’s love at
first sight and a marriage quickly follows
- a little too quickly. As George wrestles
with feelings of guilt and sorrow, Jennie
tries to save the marriage while brother
Leo, tries manfully and hilariously
to have an affair with Jennie’s
friend, Faye. Directed by John McDwyer,
Chapter Two is guaranteed to provide
a beautiful evening’s theatre
8.30pm. Adm: 14/12

| LIZ
AND YVONNE KANE
From Letterfrack, Connemara, Sisters
Liz and Yvonne Kane are “fiddle
players of an extraordinary calibre”
- Folkroots. Their style is considered
to be heavily influenced by South Sligo
Fiddle playing, the music of East Galway
and in particular the compositions and
fiddle playing of Paddy Fahey. The recordings
of Michael Coleman, Hughie Gillespie,
Andy McGann and Kathleen Collins have
also made an impact on their music.
Together Liz and Yvonne create a highly
exiting and vibrant sound and the pair
have just released their second album
Under The Diamond. 9pm. Adm: 12/10

| GALLOGLASS
THEATRE COMPANY Presents THE SANCTUARY
LAMP BY TOM MURPHY starring FRANK
KELLY, DOUGLAS McFERRAN, DAVID GORRY
and ELAINE O’DEA
This is one of Tom Murphy’s most
powerful plays. Three lost and damaged
people occupy a city church for a night.
Harry, a former circus strongman; Francisco,
a juggler and Harry’s best friend;
and Maudie, a sixteen years old waif.
Betrayed by his best friend, and his
wife, and grieving over the death of
his daughter, Harry seeks to assuage
his pain, his guilt and his feelings
of murderous intent. Despite their desperate
circumstances, their individual stories
enthrall, horrify and amuse.
8.30pm. Adm: 15/12
