Crew Call
Its summer production time down here at Synge Street. Director Louise Dunne is set to take to a main production where no main production has gone before: Smock Alley Theatre’s Main Stage! The play will run from the 4th to the 8th of July but if it is going to do so, it will require your help.
We need people to help out in a number of key positions both in management and backstage. If you don’t have experience in a position that you are interested in then we are always happy to provide training. If you have ever worked backstage you know how fun and rewarding it can be to help put on a show and this promises to be quite the show! In particular, we are looking for Prop Master as a matter of priority, which involves assisting with the sourcing of props and taking charge of them during the performance.
If you wish to get stuck in or think you might be able to help out in promoting the play then please contact Louise at loudunne at gmail.com

AGM 12th of July
No Drama will hold its Annual General Meeting this Tuesday 12th of July in Synge Street CBS at 7pm.
This is a great opportunity for our members to have a say in how we go about the things we do, to find out what happens behind the scenes and also air any issues or ask the Committee any questions (eg. What’s with all the fancy crowns and sceptres?!?).
The AGM will be our last event before we take a break for the summer. Workshops will start up again in mid-August.
Also very importantly there will be NO WORKSHOP on that Tuesday!
Shindig!
The Shindig will take place on the 9th of July and here’s the low-down:

Registration Opening: NOW! (Go! Go! Go!)
Registration Closing: Sunday 29th May
To take part, the director of the piece must email shindig@nodramatheatre.com with the following:
The sad news is that due to the demand for spots in the Shindig, the above detail must be included in order to be considered. Depending upon demand for the places in the shindig not all pieces might be accepted.
It’s a great chance to try something new or different, or take on a different role, so here’s plenty of notice to start thinking about what you might like to do.
The T&C’s (That’s T&C, not G&T)
If you are interested in performing or directing but unsure how to get involved, please let yourself be known at a workshop or post a message on our facebook page for other members to see!
The committee will support you along the way; don’t be afraid to ask for help or advice!
The Shindig is not a variety show, performance pieces only please!

Gooseberry Rules
Massive congratulations to the director Nikhil Dubey and cast of ‘Gooseberry’ – Dan McCormack, Declan Ryan and Paul McGrath – who placed first in the Ballina One Act Drama Festival. Special thanks to techie Keith Cooper & writer Hugh Cardiff!
Say what?
Directed by the lovely Nikhil Dubey, ‘Gooseberry’ after it’s storming performance at this year’s summer Shindig is being taken to stages around Ireland as part of the the One Act Circuit.
What’s the craic with it?
Three farmers in a small town, Ireland, are life-long mates and go to Bernie’s pub every Friday. But when two of them fall for each other, the third has to come to terms with what his future holds.
Deadly buzz! Where and when can I see it?
