Dungarvan Drama presents 'Da' by Hugh Leonard

November Dip into Drama!

Come and 'Dip into Drama' with Dungarvan Dramatic Club! We have recently started 

a new venture and invite anyone who is interested in drama to come along and have 

a bit of fun with us. We are organising monthly get-togethers at the Park Hotel, 

where we will be exploring the world of drama. In a very informal, fun and safe 

environment, we develop drama, both scripted and improvised, through games, 

exercises and rehearsal. For those interested in acting, but without the time to 

commit to a production, this is a perfect way to meet people and enjoy something 

different. Club member Charlie O'Donoghue says ''our aim is to have a fun, creative 

evening where we can play around with drama and learn from each other. So many 

people are interested in the club, but are afraid to take the plunge and get involved. 

Hopefully, they will feel brave enough to come and put their toe in the water, and see 

what we're about."

Our first sessions have focused on conflict in drama and how to make an impact with 

an opening scene. We have enjoyed lots of games, warm-up activities and script 

exercises, culminating in enjoyable mini-performances. The sessions so far were 

ably led by Charlie O'Donoghue and Deirdre Collender in their relaxed and friendly 

style. Everyone enjoyed a laugh and a smile, while trying out some new ideas. 

Deirdre says "It was great to see some new faces who were interested in trying 

something new on our first night in September, and very encouraging when they 

came back in October for more. We would be delighted to see them return again,

with friends, for many nights to come.”

Evenings are free and open to members and non-members to come and have a 

go. Future sessions will offer many more opportunities to create performances and 

try out different ideas and techniques, with December's session offering the chance 

to dabble in Pantomime, which is sure to be particularly entertaining! Our next 'Dip 

into Drama' will be on Thursday 6th November, 8-10pm, Moresby Room, Park Hotel, 

Dungarvan. Come along and join us for what promises to be another fun and 

interesting evening. To find out more look us up on Facebook

Dungarvan 'Dips into Drama'!!!

A new venture for DDC will be our regular monthly get–together of members and potential members, for fun and creative evenings of workshop drama.

Our aim is to explore play texts, performance techniques, improvisation and devising skills, in a supportive and welcoming environment. Themes for the workshops will be based on members' interests and will be led by members with ideas to share.

We hope that the evenings will offer an opportunity to explore our own creativity and produce pieces of drama purely for enjoyment. It will also allow those who are a little shy to tread the boards themselves, a chance to be involved without fear of a public performance!

Anyone who is interested in getting involved in this new venture for the club is encouraged to come along, meet some of the members, explore the world of drama with us, and have some fun along the way. Our first evening is Thursday 11th September 8-10pm in The Park Hotel – The Conservatory.
