“Dry Rot”

By John Chapman

This is a very fast moving, funny play about a corrupt bookmaker, a French speaking jockey and a couple of guys trying to switch a racehorse to run in a local race. The action is set in a country hotel, owned by an eccentric couple and their beautiful daughter.

The production team was Barbara Byrne and Nancy Byrne.  The cast included, Garry and Veronica Lombard, Joe Doran, David Warren, Michael Casey, Fiona O'Gorman, Aideen Byrne, Ciara Spellman, Kim Fehan, Aine O'Gorman, Oliver Stephens, John McLoughlin, David Byrne, Malcolm Byrne, Carmel Tuothy, Kathy Quirke, Fionn Stafford, Stephen Acton, Stephen Rooney and Stephen Morris.

The show had a very successful season and a "big thank you" to everybody who made it a success.

Thanks also to "The Ashdown Park Hotel" for their generous sponsorship.
