Following on the great tradition of music, drama & arts in the town the "Kilrush Operatic Society" was revived in 1986 - The previous society staged Light Opera and Grand Opera from 1951 to 1966, it's last productions being of La Traviata and Don Pasquale in 1966.
The new society staged a series of Gala Operatic Concerts in 1986 & 1987. These shows were the centrepiece of an Arts Festival organized by County Arts Officer: Kay Sheehy and Operatic Society Chairman: Michael A.Donnellan.
Delightful! Thanks for this posting.
