The 68th Wicklow ICA Federation Drama Festival took place over three-days at Glenealy Village Hall last weekend with Balally Players proving the big winners.
Bray’s Mermaid Theatre is the venue once again for the Bray One Act Drama Festival 2024, where theatre-goers can expect laughter and tears, possibly in equal measure, possibly not. Quantities rarely matter when its quality that counts, and in a month where most people languish on the couch, this little gem of a festival always manages to coax them off it to witness anything and everything from – if a glimpse of last year is any flavour – a girder on the 50th floor of a skyscraper in New York, a visit to a dog shelter, a tree of crows, a museum, a bar (there has to be a bar, surely) a recruitment agency and a world without men.
