Same Old Moon- Fundraiser

Following on from the success of staging 'Big Maggie' last year the Draíocht Group have kindly agreed to come back and stage the play 'Same Old Moon' by Geraldine Aron as a clubhouse fundraiser.

Set in Galway and London, it’s the tale of young Brenda Barnes and the life of an Irish family between the 1940s-1980s, who are forced to emigrate to London to survive. Built around a sequence of recollections from the life of Brenda, an aspiring writer, the show follows her from age nine to her mid-forties, taking us from her early days in Galway through to her return to her adopted home in London.
Her life story, as seen through her eyes, portrays her eccentric and sometimes fiery Irish family. With many very funny scenes, the main characters include her wilful and self-destructive father, Desmond, her put-upon, sometimes hot-tempered mother, Bridie, her whinging aunt, Peace, and her puritanical maternal Granny Cleary from Galway.
