Our recent production IMPACT Armagh Train Disaster played to full houses all week with many encouraging compliments from the audience each night.

Postings on social media and comments after each performance confirmed to us that something special was staged last week.

The concerted effort by Armagh Theatre Group and JoJo's Spotlight Dance and Drama Studios over  April and May really bore fruit as prolonged applause and standing ovations followed each show.

From the start of the Writers meetings in early Feb to the reading of our first draft in Abbey Lane on 10th April. Re-writes and start of rehearsals on 2nd May, then our first full dress rehearsal June 11th,  prior to our 'Opening' on the 130th anniversary of the disaster, everyone gave full comittment.

Our guest Poet from the shores of Lough Neagh near Lurgan fitted in his energetic performance while also being the taxi driver for his son who played at Holme Park the same evening. It's how busy Daddy/Poets juggle opportunities and parental duties these days. In a twenty minute slot he managed to touch on just about every subject from Family life to Brexit to Sport and even a mention of  fornacation! On twenty one minutes he grabbed his bag and coat and bolted out the door waving a farewell to all

It is with heart bursting pride that we finally announce the laying of our new flooring in Abbey Lane. This occasion was captured on camera by tireless volunteers whos devotion to duty was rewarded  by capturing the rare sight of a man using a vacuum cleaner... un-aided. Anyone who can name this 'Hero' please  get in touch via social media so he can be thanked for breaking another glass barrier in the quest for sexual equality.!
