Welcome by Dáithí O Broin, Dublin Shakespeare Society President.
Introduction: George Carroll
“Due to Covid we never got the opportunity to be their for our friends, family, each other on the passing of our members during this difficult time.
So this is why we have six members today to be remembered, our community, our friends & at todays performances their families also.
Thus in sharing the stage, we have done our best to share the time as best we could. Today there is a range of performances, readings, poems, music, songs and video, as our thank you and celebration of our remembered friends.”
