After the best part of two years work we finally put our new show on the stage. We decided to present this new work to audiences at this years Samhlaiocht in the Siamsa Tire theatre in Tralee . We really enjoyed the process of building this show over the last while and a one would expect we really enjoyed the thrill of putting on new work for our audience. Our only worry in coming up with the show was in wondering, if the ideas that we thought of as funny would work in the outside world. But judging by the reaction of the audiences at our first shows, the whole thing seems to work. We are also really pleased with the look of the show. As with all shows it is a creative process that is engaged in as a collaborative effort that owes as much to the so it owes as much to our propmakers (John Jane and Felix) as it does to as it does to the Directors that we worked with (Fraizer and John) to our graphics genei ( Michael and ailbhe) who helped to give the show its look for publicity and all the way to the arts council who assisted us in making the ideas we had come alive. And as with all shows having an live audiences will in its own way changes the show subtly and it is something that will in time mature and evolve, maybe even mutate. It had been my intention to chart and doccument the development of the new show and to present this process as a series of photos taken during the entire two year process however an unfortunate crashing related hard drive incident this planned approach so most of the photos come from the latter stages of the development of the show.
More importantly than reading any of this or even looking at the photos make sure that you get along and actuallly come and see the show we would love to see you! We hope you enjoy it!
