Joseph in dream performance at Clann Eireann

It's several years since the show last took to the stage and the cast and production crew have been working hard from September to get the show ready.

The production promises to be an evening of music, fun and hopefully laughs.

The club have managed to recruit many of the "old hands" from the first show to reprise their roles as the brothers. Those who attended their first production will undoubtedly return to see how they have managed to avoid the ravages of time.

New to the Joseph cast are Johnny McGuinness in the starring role as Joseph and Thomas Larkham who shines in the role of Pharaoh.

Nicole McKeown and Ciara O'Neill, two of Clann Eireann's best "old hands", will star as the narrators.

There are 24 children in the chorus and the price of the show is well worth the money to see their performances alone - they are as enthusiastic now as they were at the first rehearsal in September.

Joseph takes to the stage on Sunday, March 21 and continues throughout the week with performances on Monday (for children only), Wednesday, Thursday, and finishes on Friday.

The venue is St Coleman's Hall in Lake Street. Doors open nightly at 7.30pm. The cost is 5 for adults and concession for students and senior citizens is 3 payable at the door.
