Pressure
‘Pressure’ is the work of four contemporary printmakers Donna Mc Namara, Des Mac Mahon, Suzhannah O’Reilly and Noelle Noonan. The very divergence of the work shows both the range and techniques within the medium itself. There is no common thread or theme in this show. What the artists have in common is that they extend and develop their ideas choosing relevant processes to enhance their image making. Garter Lane Arts Centre, O’Connell Street, Waterford.

THEATRE & OPERA

February 17 to March 6
The Castlecomer Jukebox
A new play that reunites Red Kettle with Jimmy Murphy and Jim Nolan – the writer and director of Kings of the Kilburn Highroad. The Castlecomer Jukebox are a band, one of Irelands greatest with links back to the showband era, now on their last legs – reduced to a summer stint at a midlands hotel. This however is going to be no ordinary summer – the President of the United States of America is coming to stay and the Castlecomer Jukebox are top of the bill. The band can re-live some of their former glory and find a new lease of life with the cameras of the world looking on. There is of course a price to pay – a price that questions their loyalty and their very reasons for being a band – for playing on. Includes Mick Lally as Ginty and Honor Heffernan as Rio, the band’s singer. 8pm, tickets: €18 (€15 conc), Previews: €15 (€13 conc), Special Offer: Two for one on Mondays Friends of Garter Lane & Red Kettle: €13.50. Garter Lane Arts Centre, O’Connell Street, Waterford.
