Mullagh Entire returns to the stage

HAVING had to postpone their presentation of Pretend Sick by Michael J Gineally, due to unforeseen circumstances in February, Mullagh Entire Drama Group will take to the stage of their local hall on the weekend of April 14 and 15.
The production will also be staged on Saturday, April 21 with half the proceeds from that evening going to Seeking Vision, a charity that helps the visually impaired. The proceeds will be split with the Kilmurry Ibrickane Parish Development Fund.
Most of the action takes place in Katie’s living room. Katie is the mother of Mary and Sean and is a manipulative and cunning woman. Katie pretends to be sick in a bid to keep Mary at home. Mary is dominated by her mother but might cope with this if only Martin, whom she is courting, was more spontaneous and less of a wimp.
Sean is rough and self-centred, yet molly-coddled by both Mary and his mother. Matt the English tourist, in contrast to Martin, is educated, confident and likeable but complicates the lives of Sean and Mary.
Colour and fun are added in the form of newlyweds Tracey and Jack, who live next door. More excitement is thrown in when Sean brings home his drinking friends, Joe and Mick, along with two friendly ladies, Marion and Samantha.
Doors will open at 7.30pm each evening, with the curtain going up at 8pm.
