And the winner is…

After reading through all the submissions we are pleased to announce our new production for 2013 will be….The Other Plans by Catherine Bray and Sarah Hunt!

The Other Plans follows the lives of four women over ten years, from leaving university until their early 30s. As they meet up in pubs and restaurants, at their workplaces and at yoga classes, their plans unfold and their lives are revealed.

Directed by Kate Murphy and Produced by Meera Shaunak, The Other Plans will be performed at The Colour House Theatre as part of Abbeyfest from 12th-15th & 17th August @ 7.30pm. Click here to buy tickets.
