Forgotten writers of Fermoy
Decked out in period costume, talented young thespians, Paula Lynch, Alan Martin and Irene Kelleher re-enacted scenes from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice in Fermoy Library last week.
The normally tranquil surroundings reverberated to the stirring sounds of characters that have earned a unique place in literary history. A respectful and appreciative audience sat transfixed by performances which would have done justice to any town or city theatre.
For staff at Fermoy Library it was a step into the unknown and they were taken aback at the demand for the limited amount of free seats on offer. For an audience that represented a cross section of Irish society it was a rare treat that left them looking for more.
