The Play
The show must go on! And in the small town of Athboy, County Meath, the Athboy Players certainly hope so. With their 25th Anniversary
looming, the group want to dazzle, shine and show off their artistic talents to their loyal and faithful audience. What better way
to do this than to stage John Millington Synge's masterpiece "Playboy of the Western World". But alas...trouble is waiting in the wings!
Crew members are leaving at the last minute, actors are showing up late or not at all, the set is unfinished...where are the lights? The costumes?
and why isn't anyone learning their lines?!? What is a community theatre group to do? Can the sudden arrival of theatrical virtuoso Denis O'Byrne
be the answer to the Players prayers? Surely someone with her talents and vision can only bring the Society to new heights?
Ah...but Denise has plans of her own and will stop at nothing to see them realized!
Will the players fall prey to her whimsical notions..or will disgrace and shame befall them on the most important night of their lives...or will
tradition and hard work see them through with their good name intact? If you really want to see what goes on behind the scenes of a theatre production,
you have to see this show! Join us for a night of mad-cap antics both on and off the stage!
