Anglesboro Drama Group to perform the hilarious ‘A Wake In The West’ in March

Preparations are well underway for the Anglesboro Drama Group’s upcoming production, which will take to the stage in March.

This year the group have chosen Michael J Ginnelly’s ‘A Wake In The West’. Under the guidance of accomplished director Willie Carr, the show will open on March 21st in the local community hall and continue on 22nd, 23rd and 24th.

The play itself centres around the death of Tom Healy, and his daughter Mary who has cared for him, and son Martin, who has come home from America for the funeral, and how they both deal with his last wishes.

Mary has great support in her neighbour and friend Joan, who herself has a past history with Martin and is wondering what the future holds for them both.

Tom’s old drinking pal Barney and his long suffering wife Margaret are also in the picture, as is the towns nosey parker Rose Davitt, who will stop at nothing to get what she wants.

Throw in Fr Cassidy and the local doctor, Dr John, and the result is a laugh a minute comedy, that’s sure to have the audience falling off their seats! So put the date in your diaries – booking details etc at a later date!
