Yee-haw! Portlaoise Musical Society to host Rodeo Party fundraiser
Portlaoise Musical Society are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year
You better dust off your cowboy hats because Portlaoise Musical Society are hosting a Rodeo Party fundraiser this month to celebrate their 25th anniversary.
The Portlaoise Musical Society first took to the stage with their rendition of the iconic Broadway show 'Oklahoma' in 1999. Since then, the group has captivated audiences with their award-winning productions.
The society won 'Best Overall Show' in 2019 with 'Titanic - The Musical' in the All Ireland Musical Awards (AIMS). They made their way into the 'Best Overall Show' category again in 2020 with 'Ragtime - The Musical'. In the same year they were awarded 'Best Visual' and 'Best Actor' (Shane Kelly). Last year, the society were runners-up at the 2023 AIMS Awards for 'Best House Management', 'Best Actor in a Supporting Role' and 'Best Technical'.
Earlier this year, Portlaoise Musical Society announced their upcoming show 'Guys and Dolls'. The society will dazzle their audiences with the beloved musical comedy from November 16 to 23 at the Dunamaise Arts Centre.
But before they take to the stage, the group have invited people to saddle up and put their boots on for their Rodeo Party fundraiser. To celebrate their 25th anniversary, on Friday 27 September the BBQ party will be taking place at Fossey Mountain Springs Ranch in Timahoe.
Tickets for the event are still available and cost €20 per person. The ticket cost covers entry fee and BBQ food. The ticket sales will end on Sunday 15 September so make sure you grab yours in time!
