Curtain up soon on 'Oliver' 03.10.08

PREPARATIONS are well underway for the upcoming production of 'Oliver' which opens in St Mary’s Hall, Buncrana, at the end of the month.
Cast and crew have been working hard over the last few months and are "very excited" having just completed their first full run through of the show during rehearsals last weekend.
"This promises to be a spectacular show with a highly talented cast, some of whom are taking on principal roles for the first time alongside a few familiar faces," said a spokesperson for the producers, Greasepaint Productions.
"The professionalism of the musicians and creative team ensure that the music, set, props, lighting and costumes all contribute to the overall atmosphere of this very unique production."
The last time a musical was performed in St Mary’s Hall was 'Oklahoma' over 45 years ago. The producers now hope their production of 'Oliver' will revive an appetite for musical theatre in the seaside town and compliment the ever popular annual pantomime.
The musical will run from Thursday, October 30 until Saturday, November 8.
Evening performances will commence at 8pm with weekend matinees at 2.30pm. However, there will be no performances on Friday or Sunday night as the parish bingo continues as normal.
The box office opens on Saturday, October 11 at St Mary’s Hall from Monday to Saturday 11am to 2pm and 5pm until 7pm. You can also make reservations on 086 2072496 or 086 2072497 or email greasepaint_productions@hotmail.co.uk .
