SUMMARY:Theatre of the Oppressed
DESCRIPTION:This Forum Theatre event comprised two short pieces devised over six weekly workshops with Shakes members.\nForum Theater\, one of the major techniques within Theatre of the Oppressed\, allows spectators to collaborate in the experience by becoming ‘spect-actors’ (the audiences who participate in the actual performance). \nThrough a moderator (Joker) and a group of actively engaged spectators\, Forum Theatre embodies dialogues\, exchanges\, learning\, teaching\, and pleasure. At the conclusion\, the play will begin again with the audience being able to replace or add to the characters on stage to present their interventions; alternate solutions to the problems faced. \nParticipation is option\, so if you come you don’t have to get up on stage – but you might want to! \n \nCast and Production \nBrian Murray\nEdward Clinton\nDermot Corrigan\nNoelle Timmons\nDaithi O Broin\nAidan Judd\nCristhian R. Zelaya\nNessa Power \n  \nNo prior booking.\nPatrons are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment.\nTea and Coffee with light refreshments served.

SUMMARY:Render Unto Caesar
DESCRIPTION:Render Unto Caesar is a radio play written by the late Patrick J. Power.\nAbout the author\nPatrick J Power\, a “Raheny veteran” was born in 1929 and he died in March of this year (2021) – just three days before his 92nd birthday. \nThe renowned storyteller was originally from Roscommon where his father was a Garda sergeant. He moved to Dublin when he was 18\, excited to be a part of a quickly changing city in the 50s. Patrick started working in Dublin Port before rising up the ranks to Planning Officer. \nAll the while the young Roscommon man was studying for a BCom in Trinity College Dublin at night time. Patrick started writing for newspapers and magazines like the Evening Press\, the Irish Independent and Ireland’s Own. Patrick spent his later years writing full time and reflecting on all the great characters he had come across in life. His plays were broadcast on RTE Radio 1 and BBC Four. \nRender Unto Caesar was turned down by RTE on the grounds that the priest’s sermons were too long and unbalanced the script. The BBC broadcast the play as part of its contribution to Bloomsday 1998. The Radio Times chose it as a highlight on Radio 4\, the London Independent’s Fiona Sturges included it in her Pick of the Day column and the Irish Times radio critic Harry Browne gave it special mention. A repeat was broadcast in June 1999. \nSynopsis\nA death in the community and a sum of money going missing.\nRender Unto Caesar gives an insight into the somewhat hidden conflicts between the Catholic Church\, the rule of law\, and the individuals in a small community. \n  \nThis production is brought to you courtesy of Patrick’s daughter Nessa. \n \nCast \n\n\n\nBridget Kinsella\n\nMuriel Caslin O’Hagan\n\n\nMike Kinsella\n\nVal O’Donnell\n\n\nMary Pettit\n\nMary Dowling\n\n\nJim Pettit\n\nSteve Curran\n\n\nFather Murphy\n\nPaul McCorry (performed on the night by understudy Tim Casey)\n\n\nNellie\n\nNessa Power\n\n\nSargent\n\nPádraig Denihan\n\n\n\nDirected by \nTim Casey \n  \nProduction \nLiam Borgström \n* \nBooking required \nWith reduced capacity due to COIVD-19 we are asking you to book a seat.  If you are attending please send an email detailing the number in your party to \nbookings@dublinshakespearesociety.ie   \nAlso for those members who feel they would prefer not to attend in person there will be a limited number of places available to watch the performance over Zoom. Again please email \nbookings@dublinshakespearesociety.ie  \nThe entrance to the live performance is free\, however we will be accepting CASH donations on the night. \n*\nPatrick J.

SUMMARY:Today's a Holiday
DESCRIPTION:A group of residents seize control of the roof of their apartment block in 1950s Madrid.\nIt’s a national holiday and they are at leisure to enjoy the freedom of the open air\, normally denied them by their caretaker.\nOver the course of the day\, and in the freedom of the open air\, they reveal their hopes and dreams of breaking free from the poverty which defines their lives…. \n \nThis intensely human drama by the foremost playwright of late 20th century Spain echoes the work of O’Casey and Miller\, and explores themes of hope and individual responsibility. \nOur performance combines vintage footage\, music\, commentary and live extracts over Zoom\, and will be your chance to experience the first English language performance of the play by Antonio Buero Vallejo\, as translated and adapted for the Dublin Shakespeare Society by Paul Maher. \nCast: \nMary Conlon\, \nEileen Sheridan\, \nNöelle Timmons\, \nFionn Murray O’Halpin\, \nBrigid Sweeney\, \nJane Baird\, \nMarie Ryan\, \nHilary Boyle\, \nTim Casey\, \nMuriel Caslin O’Hagan\, \nLouis O’Byrne\, \nVal O’Donnell\, \nJohnny Byrne.\nNarrator and Director: Paul Maher\nAudio-visual production: Liam Borgström \nNOTE: THIS IS AN ONLINE EVENT \nNO BOOKING REQUIRED \n\nTO VIEW THE EVENT CLICK ON THIS LINK: \nhttps://youtu.be/05dUnFd4Tvw

SUMMARY:As You Like It - Episode 2
DESCRIPTION:A very rough edited version of ‘As you like it’ on Zoom \n\nDate for your diary \nEpisode 2 \nThur 3rd Dec – Audience (Door) Zoom open 7.30 (Zoom Door close 8.00 \nBoth Performances start at 8.00 ( Approx 1 hour duration each). \nBooking required at info@ dublinshakespearesociety.ie \nDue to the constraints of the “Zoom” meeting platform there is a limited number of people who can view the show. The first 35 bookings secure an entry. Remember\, and in line with COVID-19 restrictions\, it may be possible for a household to watch the performance together. So if you are a household of 1+ you only need to make one booking. \n************ \nThis play with its cross dressed theme\, gender games and sexual ambivalence\, and the Forest\, speaks to us clearly today. Shakespeare has seen into the future again with this very popular comedy with depth and vision\, which is apt to be adapted and performed on Zoom and was originally written in 1598. \nThe journey of this project began with a rough edited version of ‘ As you like it’ by George Carroll\, in the August Workshops\, which explored the potential for actors and zoom for a performance. A great and essential learning experience for all. The cast evolved and all who participated in the workshops and where available for the production\, continued with the project for performance. All the workshops and all the rehearsal were over zoom. \nThe Edited text of ‘As you like it’ \nGeorge:          “Brendan ( Co- Director)\, would you like to come in here.” \nBrendan:       “Yes\, in this edited version of the play for zoom\, we begin with Rosalind and Celia. Duke Senior has been( who is Rosalind’s father) deposed from the head of Court by his brother Duke Fredrick\, who is Celia’s father. But Celia and Rosalind are very close friends and even closer from these events.” \nGeorge:          “The background for some of the other characters is\, Orlando is the youngest son of recently deceased Sir Roland de Boys and his older brother Oliver. Who is bitter and angry with Orlando and he has been treated him harshly.” \nThe Cast \nNiamh O’Brien Rhiannon – Rosalind /Ganymede \nFiona Walsh – Celia/Aliena \nBenjamin Musgrave – Orlando\, \nNiall O’Kennedy – Touchstone\, First Lord \nSonia Lavelle- Le Beau\, Phoebe\, Audrey \nBarry O’Connor – Duke Frederick\, Oliver\, Hymen \nBilly Mulligan – Corrin\, Duke Senior \nPadraig Denihan – Silvius\, Jacques and \nBrendan O Daly as the Director

SUMMARY:Nannie's Night Out
DESCRIPTION:NANNIE’S NIGHT OUT\nA comedy in one act. \nby Sean O’Casey \n \nIt is just 2 years after the establishment of the Free State. Nannie\, out of jail\, intends to have a good night on the streets of her impoverished\, north inner city Dublin. Meanwhile various people are surreptitiously seeking a free place to live. Others are hoping to cadge some money or even chance a bit of thieving/shop lifting. But\, as always with O’Casey\, there is more to it all than meets the eye. \nThis play was presented at the Abbey in 1924. It bears much relationship to The Shadow of a Gunman and Juno and the Paycock\, both of which went before it. In addition it has elements of The Plough and the Stars\, which was presented in 1926. It has been described by Prof Robert Hogan as an “unrecognised masterpiece”. Amongst the last of his writings\, as O’Casey was coming into conflict with the Abbey\, it also has some marks of his later Expressionist works. \nCast\nPolly:                                            Geraldine Maguire\nNannie:                                                   Nessa Power\nYoung girl:                                   Bernie Reynolds\nThe Ballad singer:                         Eoin Ó Séaghdha\nFemale Ballad singer (offstage)            Mary Ryan\nJohnny:                                                Dáithí O Broin\nJimmy:                                                 George Carroll\nJoe:                                                            Jim O’Keefe\n2 Ambulance Men:                           Willie Morrison\,\nRobert                                              Bernie Reynolds\nYoung Man                                 Maxim Trigub\nCrowd \nWith permission from: Macnaughton Lord Representation \nPart Two:\nNANNIE & O’CASEY’S EARLY WRITINGS \nREADERS:\nMary Dowling                          Geraldine Fitzgerald\nMaire Moriarty                          Roisin Mee\nBernadette Ryan Harvey \nNo prior booking for rehearsed readings.\nPatrons are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment.\nTea and Coffee with light refreshments served.

He succeeded his father in his title and estates in 1149.\nThe extensive ruins of his castle at Chepstowe would alone attest his possessions and influence; but having wasted his substance by extravagance\, and being out of favour with\, he eagerly seized the first opportunity that offered of retrieving his broken fortunes.\nThis came in King Henry’s licence to Dermot MacMurrough\, permitting him to seek assistance in England to establish his claim to the throne of Leinster.\nMacMurrough offered Strongbow extensive territories in Ireland\, and the hand of his daughter Eva\, if he would enter into his plans.\nThe intrepid Earl threw himself heart and soul into the enterprise\, and in May 1169 sent forward an expedition…… \nNo prior booking for rehearsed readings.\nPatrons are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment.\nTea and Coffee with light refreshments served.

SUMMARY:Glenmalure Hill Walk and Performance
DESCRIPTION:The Dublin Shakespeare Society is holding a fundraising hill-walk followed by a rehearsed reading of JM Synge’s ‘In the Shadow of the Glen’ in Glenmalure on Sunday 18th of August (weather permitting). \n \nThe walk\, to be led by Louis O’Byrne\, will start at 12.00 noon and last approximately one hour.  It will include part of the historical Miner’s Path and involve some uphill walking along forest paths suitable for most walkers.  The starting point will be the Barravore car park close to Glenmalure Youth Hostel\, and will terminate at the hostel itself. \nThe reading which should last approximately 45 minutes\, will be performed in the garden of the  hostel after the walk. The starting time will be 2.30pm (for those who do not wish to walk). \n‘In the Shadow of the Glen’ is a particularly suitable choice\, as a ruined cottage close to the hostel is believed to be the cottage Synge had in mind as the setting for the play.  The reading will be performed by Roisin Mee\, Philip Gleeson\, Paul McCorry and Stephen Burke and directed by Paul Maher. \nCooking facilities at the hostel are limited but tea and coffee will be available and the venue is suitable for picnics.  You would be advised to bring ground blankets or foldable chairs. Sanitary facilities are also limited. \nIt takes approximately 1.5 hours to reach Glenmalure Hostel (A67YW77) from Dublin by car and\, as there is no public transport\, we would suggest that those travelling might offer lifts to members who don’t have transport of their own. \nBooking at 0858432881\, contribution €15 per person. \n  \nHistoric Glenmalure \nAt the famous Battle of Glenmalure 1580 an Irish Catholic force made up of Gaelic clans from the Wicklow Mountains and led by Fiach McHugh O’Byrne\, defeated an English army under Lord Grey. The fighting took place near the O’Byrne mountain stronghold in Glenmalure. \nWhile trying to climb the steep slopes of the valley (visible from the path)\, the inexperienced English soldiers were ambushed by the Irish rebels\, who had hidden themselves in the woods. The English army of 3\,000 suffered 800 casualties. Rumours that Louis O’Byrne was leading a walk in the valley at the time can be discounted\, as he was clearly too young. \nMining in Glenmalure may have begun as early as 1797.  It continued through the period of the 1798 rebellion which persisted in the valley until 1803. Various records document intermittent production between 1811 and 1900.  On the walk you will see spoil heaps from the mines\, a tunnel or adit\, the remains of a crusher house and water mill. \nJohn Millington Synge \nSynge was widely regarded as the most influential Irish dramatist of the twentieth century. He was an Irish playwright\, poet\, prose writer\, and collector of folklore. One of the co -founders of the Abbey Theatre\, he is best known for the play “The Playboy of the Western World” which caused riots during its opening run at the Abbey theatre. Synge wrote many well known plays\, including “Riders to the Sea”\, which is often considered to be his strongest literary work. Although he came from an Anglo-Irish background\, his writings are mainly concerned with the world of the Roman Catholic peasants of rural Ireland. “In The Shadow of the Glen” premiered on October 8\, 1903 as a production of the Irish National Theatre Society. Although it was the third play completed by Synge\, it was the first to be produced\, and it created an immediate controversy for the author and the National Theatre. Although the play’s focus on a loveless and decaying marriage hardly represented a new subject for drama\, many Irish nationalists saw Synge’s play as nothing less than an affront to Irish femininity. The resulting confrontations established the author’s volatile relationship with the nationalist community in Ireland and set the stage for the more massive and far-reaching conflict.
