Ireland’s only Irish sign language interpreted pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk at UCH Limerick, has been extended online to next Sunday due to overwhelming public demand.
And former boyband star Dayl Cronin, who plays Jack, tells Sundayworld.com how the cast of the Limerick panto had to live together for 20 days before recording the show this year due to Covid-19.
Singer and dancer Cronin, who was a member of Louis Walsh’s HomeTown boyband, says: “It’s been so weird doing panto this year as we had to isolate together and have regular tests. We were sent home test kits before we all got together and we were tested a good bit while we were there.”
