Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media

Development of Local and Community Arts: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Feargal Cavanagh:

I am pretty sure that people are still getting involved creatively and with societies. That is still there. Our show opens tonight and runs for five nights until Saturday. There is a wealth of talent that we can tap into to provide all the people necessary for all the different functions that we need to stage a show. We could have up to 100 people involved in staging a show between the cast and everybody else. That has not changed. I travel around to see the shows of different societies. I was in Coolmine last night for the opening of its show and we stayed over so we could be here today. That is happening. I know that Boyle is opening its show in a couple of weeks as well.
