What's Happening in 2012
for Schull Drama Group ?
Schull Drama Group is very excited to announce a new innovative project; the 10 x 10 Production. Ten ten-minute plays have been chosen from submissions by local writers and these are to be performed by ten different directors with ten different casts. The ten-minute play is like a little gem, it has to be well written or it just doesn’t work. The idea has been tried very successfully in other theatres but using high quality scripts written by local writers makes this project extra exciting.
SDG is very keen to support and motivate members to push themselves to experience an area of theatre that they haven’t tried before, whether as director, designer or actor. Edmund Krugel (Chairman SDG) says: “Even though the idea is not a new one, it is certainly new to Schull! We are delighted to bring this “Ten by Ten” weekend to Schull. It is all about community spirit at its best. You will be able to try your hand at acting, directing, stage management or indeed writing your own script! There is so much talent hidden in every one of us! Have a go and enjoy!”
Participants have been encouraged to find ‘their heart’s desire’ and try their hand at something new. Under the inspired leadership of Karen Minihan, who is facilitating the project, the group has been meeting to read the submitted scripts. Ten interesting and very different plays have been selected and directors have come forward, casting has taken place and rehearsals are well underway. During rehearsal, the directors will be offered mentoring sessions in all areas of production, to help them bring their individual productions to the stage. Thirty people of all ages and talents are involved so far, bringing their energy and commitment to the project for the next six weeks.
Performance details:
Schull Hall June 15, 16, & 17th @ 8.00pm
Tickets €10 (concessions €7)
