Barnstorm Senior Youth Theatre will bring The Trials by Dawn Wood to the stage at An Ionad Dara in Goresbridge this week.

He is Artistic Director of A Very Good Place to Start Theatre Company, a company that has an emphasis on creating and developing high-end and engaging musical theatre in Ireland; and has worked with the Gate and Gaiety Theatres in Dublin.

There are three performances on Friday, April 26 and Saturday, April 27 at 7.30 pm, with a matinee on Saturday at 3pm, in Ionad Dara, Goresbridge, R95 D654.

Tickets are €15 and €12.
