The long-running Dún Laoghaire Library Theatre Club meets on the second Saturday of every month in Dún Laoghaire Library at 11.00am.
Over the years the group
has discussed a wide variety of plays, ranging from established classics such
as Death
of a Salesman and The Importance of Being Ernest, to more contemporary fare like Alice
in Funderland and I’m
Not A.D.H.D – I’m B.O.L.D. Sometimes
the chosen plays are on locally in the Pavilion Theatre in Dún Laoghaire or the
Mill Theatre in Dundrum but Theatre Club members also opt for plays available
in any of the Dublin theatres.
