Exciting times at this Tipperary school as they announce details off their annual musical

It is with great anticipation that the Ursuline begins preparations for the annual school musical The Little Mermaid, which will open on Saturday night October 21.

This year sees a new director taking over the helm, German and French teacher, Ms Erica Flanagan.

She follows in the footsteps of Ms Mary Butler, who directed over 40 Ursuline Shows in her time on staff.

Erica will join forces with Music teacher and Musical Director Ms Joan Butler in staging what will surely be a wonderful production of a much loved story.

Thank you to Ms Mary Butler for her talent, hard work and unstinting devotion to the annual school show over so many years.

She has left a legacy to the Ursuline Thurles that this year’s production team hope to follow and emanate.
