SUMMARY:Phoenix Players Exhibition Weekend
DESCRIPTION:A remarkable milestone in local theatre is set to be celebrated this April as The Phoenix Players mark an incredible 80 years on stage with a vibrant and nostalgic anniversary exhibition. \nTaking place in St. Brigid’s Hall\, this special event promises to bring audiences on a journey through eight decades of drama\, laughter\, creativity\, and community spirit. Running from 12–8pm on Saturday 25th April and 12–3pm on Sunday 26th April\, the exhibition is free to attend and open to all. \nVisitors can expect far more than a simple display. This immersive exhibition will shine a spotlight on the rich history of the group\, with each decade carefully curated to tell its own story. From newspaper clippings and vintage posters to cast and crew photographs\, the evolution of the Phoenix Players will be brought vividly to life. \nA treasure trove of props\, costumes\, and memorabilia from past productions will be on display\, alongside some stories of accolades earned over the years. For many\, it will be a chance to reminisce — and for others\, an opportunity to discover the legacy of one of the area’s most enduring drama groups. \nAdding to the experience\, a dedicated audio-visual reel will showcase snippets from productions across the decades\, capturing unforgettable moments from the stage. Visitors will even have the unique chance to step onto the boards themselves\, exploring old props and getting a true feel for life behind the curtain. \nOf course\, no theatre story would be complete without the tales that happen offstage. The exhibition will also feature funny stories\, backstage mishaps\, and behind-the-scenes chaos — the moments that audiences don’t always see but which make theatre so special. \nThe celebrations continue on Saturday evening\, 25th with a social gathering in Cawley’s Hotel\, where food\, drink\, and storytelling will take centre stage. Tickets for the social event are available from Gillespies & Doohans\, priced at €15 per person\, and promises an evening of great company\, shared memories\, and plenty of laughter. \nThis anniversary weekend is more than just a look back — it’s a celebration of the people\, passion\, and performances that have kept the Phoenix Players thriving for 80 years. \nWhether you’ve been part of a production\, sat in the audience\, or are simply curious to experience the magic of local theatre\, this is an event not to be missed. \nCome along\, take a trip through the decades\, and be part of the story. \nExhibition runs Sat 25th April 12-8pm & Sun 26th April 12-3pm\, Free Entry. \nSocial Event Saturday 25th 8pm Cawleys Hotel Tubbercurry\, Tickets €15.
