Unleash Your Talents at Dungarvan Dramatic Club
Welcome to Dungarvan Dramatic Club, where the magic of the stage comes alive and creativity knows no bounds! If you have a passion for drama, whether you’re an aspiring actor, a behind-the-scenes wizard, or someone who simply loves the thrill of live performance, you’ve come to the right place.
Discover Your Role
Our Club was founded in 1941 to “perform plays, promote culture and encourage good comradeship amongst its members”. Over 80 years later, we continue to uphold these aims.
The Club is an inclusive community group where friendships are formed, and members’ skills and talents are given ample opportunity to flourish, both on stage and off. Whichever is your preferred option — or both, if you really want to stretch yourself!!!!
Acting
No experience is necessary; enthusiasm and a willingness to learn are advantages, though! So, if you have always dreamt of treading the boards, Dungarvan Dramatic Club is the place for you!
Directing
Have you a vision of how a play you love might be cast and brought from page to stage, with the support of a production team? Our Club might be the forum for you to develop and use the skills needed to make this vision a reality.
Backstage / Production Team
From set construction to lighting, sound effects, prompting, prop making, stage crew and stage management — if any of these are areas that you think you might be interested in, we’d be delighted to have you on board as part of our backstage team.
Costumes
Do you have a knack for sewing? Do you like browsing second-hand clothing shops and using your imagination to reuse and repurpose a cast-off from another era? Then you’re an ideal candidate for the wardrobe department of our Club.
Publicity
If you are interested in photography, graphic design, programme design, creating promotional material for use across a range of media, and/or if you have computer or typing skills, then you definitely have a role to play in Dungarvan Dramatic Club. Work here is ongoing as we endeavour to promote the Club throughout the year, and not just at production time.
Front of House
If you enjoy meeting people and creating a welcoming atmosphere, whether at our ticket desk, during interval refreshments, or selling raffle tickets, consider joining our Front of House team. We always need people to help cover the usual four-night run of our productions.
