Kerry Drama Festival 2022

Kerry Drama Festival is back! It’s great to see the resumption of drama at The Ivy Leaf  Theatre.
The 2020 Drama Festival was cut short and the 2021 Festival was cancelled because of Covid-19 so all credit is due to the Amateur Drama Council of Ireland and the Ivy leaf management for working hard to get Kerry Drama Festival 2022 on the road.
The programme is much shorter than usual (4 nights instead of the usual 8) but it’s a great start and all the drama-starved enthusiasts are looking forward to it immensely.

The 2022 Festival features some of the best Amateur Drama Societies in Ireland who will be recognized by theatre goers as they have all performed at The Ivy Leaf Theatre in Castleisland, in previous years.

This is the programme for Kerry Drama Festival 2022:

Date	Section	Play	Drama Group
Fri 4th Mar, 2022		The Beauty Queen of Leenane by Martin McDonagh	Brideview Drama Group
Sat 5th Mar, 2022		Conversations on a Homecoming by Tom Murphy	Kilmeen Drama Group
Sun 6th Mar, 2020		Betrayal by Harold Pinter	Corofin Dramatic Society
Fri 11th Mar, 2020		Chapati by Christian O'Reilly	Palace Players

This is part of the qualifying rounds for the All Ireland Amateur Drama finals of the Open and Confined competitions which are held in Athlone later in 2022.

This year’s adjudicator is Aodh McCay. He will give a summary of the performance each night and award the prizes on the final night.

Great Value entertainment at only €10 per night.
