A Night at the Theatre features people from various groups and organisations
IMAGINE being in a theatre and being able to witness some of the best performances in history.
This is backdrop to 'A Night at the Theatre' from Creative Show - a collaboration between Limerick Youth Theatre and AVISTA.
Myles Breen has written the script, with hundreds of singers, dancers, musicians and actors involved in the family friendly comic variety show.
Incorporating live performances and short films, the show brings ghosts back from over 1,000 years, as the performers recreate their favourite on-stage moments.
Artistic director of Limerick Youth Theatre, Angie Smalis said: “The Creative Show has become the highlight of LYT's yearly programming. I am privileged to be able to co-produce this innovative and inclusive project and be part of the creative process by choreographing its dance elements.”
She added: “It is a hands-on process and we all learn from each other. Not only has the professional team been focusing on creating and presenting artistic work, they have been extremely generous sharing their knowledge, expertise and resources.”
