And so the doors to Muldoon Manor have closed for the last time.
We have loved every moment of ‘The Real Inspector Hound’, and we have so many people to thank for that! ❤️
Firstly our amazing director, Dave McGowan, without whom this project would never have been born! Thank you for your vision, hard work, and leadership in bringing this piece to life!
Thank you to our assistant director, Jacqueline Carroll, for your passion, guidance and endless enthusiasm for making this piece the best it can be! We would be lost without your organisation skills and quick thinking!
Our production manager and fundraiser quizmaster, Dave Curran, thank you for managing the huge task of bringing everything together! You coordinated so many people, props, plans and made it look easy! And thank you for being our fabulous ‘Voice on the radio’!
Thank you to our stage manager, Cian Doherty, for keeping everything running smoothly for 5 nights straight AND a matinée! You run a damn tight ship! And thank you to our stage assistants Fabrizio Lucarelli, Vonnie Durran Jones, Roy O’Connor, and Kate Cosgrave for your fab work keeping track of props, set, and the general smooth-running of the show and being our front-of-house reps!
Thank you to Susannah Conroy, our lighting and sound technician, and assistant light technician Adrielle Moretti, for your hard work and creativity in bringing the stage to life through lighting and sound. We can always rely on you for a safe pair of hands to ensure a well-designed and delivered feast for the senses!
Thank you to Patrick O’Callaghan for the absolutely stunning and unique poster artwork! And thank you for the equally fab programme design! We cannot get enough of your artwork, and it will forever hold a special place in our hearts!
Thank you to Malcolm Bolton, for once again producing with poise and expertise. You kept on top of everything, while still allowing the cast and crew full freedom for creativity and fun!
Thank you to Paul Hegarty for the beautiful cast and crew headshots! They manage to perfectly capture each unique character!
Thank you to our videographer Fionn Bowes Fitzpatrick, for filming and editing our incredible trailer that will go down in No Drama history! And for once again serving as our resident in-action photographer, capturing some fantastic in-action shots of the cast!
Thank you to Colum McDaid for pulling together an incredible set in a record turnaround time! You truly brought Muldoon Manor to life!
Thank you to Saorla O’Dowd for the fantastic costume design! You helped bring every character to life and transport us back in time!
Thank you to Marie Gaynor who did our costume alterations. You made Lady Muldoon’s dress look absolutely stunning and turned around a tonne of fabulous work so quickly!
Thank you to Lana Camilli for managing PR for the show, and a big thank you to everyone else who spread the word, allowing us to be able to boast yet another sellout show!
A huge thank you to Smock Alley Theatre for once again hosting us in their beautiful space, and to all the Smock Alley staff who supported us throughout the past week! Smock Alley always feels like a home away from home for No Drama. ❤️

So thank you Hannah Lemass, Declan Ryan, Saorla O’Dowd, Andrei Callanan, Morven Cameron, Lisa Gallagher, Tom Hughes, and Theo Dennis!
And last but far from least, thank you to EVERYONE who came to see ‘The Real Inspector Hound’! All of this would be pointless without you, and you brought such energy to every single show! Our hearts are full and it’s thanks to you all! ❤️
Huge love to everyone mentioned above and everyone else who has supported us over the past few months as we brought this piece to the stage!

All our love,
