Teapots for Druid on Culture Night 2011
Druid Lane Theatre will host Blue Teapot for Culture Night 2011 on Friday 23rd September.
The atmospheric Druid Theatre has played host to some of Ireland’s greatest theatrical works of the modern era, as well as stabling some of Ireland’s greatest thespians – the late Mick Lally, Sean McGinley and Marie Mullen to name a few. Now Blue Teapot’s ensemble can be added to the roll call of greats to tread the hallowed Druid boards!
Culture Night 2011 sees the premiere reading of a specially commissioned short film screenplay ‘84′ by Len Collin.
About ‘84′ – Little does Tom know when he says goodbye to his parents that he’s seeing them for the last time. He believes he is going on a vacation. That his girlfriend will accept his proposal of marriage. That the future is bright. The gang are all meeting at the dancehall, where they wait for the 84 bus to take them to their destination; but in a world run by the ministry, nothing is as it seems. A funny, sad, tense and intriguing drama.
This commission is being funded through the Arts and Disability Networking (ADN), a partnership between Arts Council, Arts & Disability Ireland and Galway City and County Councils. The initiative is to pilot a new model of developing local capacity in the area of arts and disability in Ireland.
The rehearsed reading and talk with writer Len Collin takes place at 8pm, Druid Lane Theatre, off Quay Street, Galway. Seating is limited so in order to secure your seat contact us 091 520 977 in advance.
We look forward to seeing you there.
