Excitement builds for Longford Variety Group autumn show

Longford Variety Group's production 'This Is Me' are selling out fast.

The boundless talent of Longford performers will be on display as the local Variety Group presented their autumn show.

Featuring acts from The Greatest Showman, MJ the Musical, Tina Turner the Musical, Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Jersey Boys and Fiddler on the Roof the show is a feast of local talent.

Audiences will also be treated to special performances by the students of Stonepark National School Choir and Peelo School of Dance.

This year’s show will be co-directed by Charlie Murray and Kevin Hussey.

Choreographer Penny Barry's routines perfectly complemented a musical programme of the highest standard. John Kelly will presided over the comedy section of the show and it featured some star turns by well know names. The set design is by Gerry , Emma and Killian.

For over two and a half decades the group raised well over a quarter of a million euros for local charities.

This year all proceeds are going to Longford Hospice Homecare, St Christopher’s Special School, St Joeseph’s National School, Melview National school and other local charities.

The show runs from Wednesday, November 27 to Saturday, November 20, tickets costing €14.50 are available at the Backstage box office.
