GAA QUIZ NIGHT

Who needs Mastermind, The Weakest Link or the Chase – sure we have a quiz night on Friday, April 13, at 8.30 p.m. in the Island Bar. So gather up a few mates that could give you a dig out in getting a 10 out of 10 or just having a laugh on a Friday night out.

SPLIT-THE-POT

Congratula­tions to Shay Moran on winning €162 in last week’s split-the-pot draw. Draw takes place in the community centre on Sunday after Mass.

Ballycogle­y Players Pre-all-Ireland Performanc­es of the Night Alive by Conor McPherson will take place in the Dun Mhuire Theatre on Thursday and Saturday, April 12, and 14, at 8 p.m. Tickets, €10 at the door each night.

Come along and meet Tommy (Chris Maddock), a separated family man, who lives in his Uncle Maurice’s (Con Doyle) house and Doc (Seán Carthy) who stays in the flat from time to time. The duo get by by going from one get rich quick scheme to another. One night Tommy rescues Aimee (Trish Boyce) and she moves in for a while. A few days later her boyfriend Kenneth (Colm Doyle) arrives on the scene and matters take a sinister turn.

This wonderful play has had audiences in fits of laughter and tears on its journey around the country during the drama circuit season. All human emotion is on display as even in the most unlikely of situations humanity can be found.

The cast and crew will perform in the all-Ireland Finals in Carnew, Co.Wicklow on Tuesday, April 17.
