Dancing at Lughnasa by Brian Friel
13 to 18 October 2025
Evenings at 7:45pm.
2:30pm matinee on Saturday 18 October.
It’s harvest time in County Donegal, 1936. Outside the village of Ballybeg, the five Mundy sisters battle poverty to raise seven-year-old Michael and care for their brother, ‘Uncle’ Jack. During the Festival of Lughnasa, Pagan and Christian meet and collide. The sisters fight each other, love each other, dance, yearn and survive.
Brian Friel’s Olivier Award-winning play is an astonishing evocation of a family’s world on the brink of change.
The Play & Stage Committee are holding an introductory evening on Tuesday 25 March for all the plays in the 2025-26 season. Auditions for all plays will on Tuesday 1 and Thursday 3 April. If you would like to be considered for a part or a backstage role, but cannot attend, please get in touch with the Play & Stage Committee (pscc@greenroomwilmslow.org.uk)
