📽It was great playing a small part getting this to the big screen- Best of luck Maria 🎥
Travel back in time and join us for a screening of ‘The Gondoliers’ - Dungarvan Musical and Choral Society’s 1980 production on Thursday 30th January at 6pm in aid of Waterford Hospice. Stalwarts of the Dungarvan music scene (past and present) will take to the stage to tell the story of Marco (Neil Hurley), Giuseppe (Tom D’Arcy) and their brides Gianetta (Teresa Considine) and Tessa (Marian Gough).
It is not smooth sailing for the newly married couples, as it appears that one of the gondoliers may be destined to be heir to the throne of Barataria in Spain. Enter the royal family as played by Jim O’Keeffe, Anne Murphy and Jean Connolly along with their entourage including Martin Hession and Sean O’Donnell. The rightful King’s foster mother (Lena Walsh) eventually helps to shed light on the matter, and ultimately love triumphs as we are transported by the chorus of the gondoliers and contadine to another time and place.
This promises to be a magical evening of musical memories as Gilbert and Sullivan’s classic once again takes to the Dungarvan stage.
Tickets (€10) are available at Dungarvan Cinema and The Wine Buff, with all proceeds going to Waterford Hospice
