*** Friday night's performance ***

It is with extreme regret we have made a decision to CANCEL Friday night's performance (24th January). The safety of our cast, crew, audience and friends in the wider community is paramount - we are not willing to risk anyone's welfare in light of the adverse weather conditions currently forecast.

HOWEVER, the show WILL go on!!! Tickets for Friday night's show will now be valid for Thursday night's show instead. Simply present your ticket at the box office on Thursday night for entry.

For patrons unable to make this rescheduled offering, please contact us via our page / Instagram page / any member of the group to organise a refund, which we are more than happy to process after Saturday. Refunds will be facilitated via our group only.

We are disappointed we will not get to deliver our smashing performance over 3 nights, but that energy will be redirected to smash 2 fantastic nights. Stay safe and well and we look forward to raising curtains tomorrow night!!

Smashing time with “nearly sisters” who came across the sea from Wales and brightened up our days with great laughter. Can’t wait to see them around again 🫶🫶🫶

Yesterday, the first Ride Leader Casual Cycling session started in Monasterevin, led by two recently trained Cycling Ireland leaders, Dennis and Cath.

The meeting point for the first puting was at Monasterevin's SuperValu.

Dennis and Cath led the group out from Monasterevin to Fishermans on this route over 10 km.

It was a really perfect evening for a cycle in our beautiful counties of Kildare and Laois, and the group bumped into another cycling group on the route.
