Killarney

<h3>The energy and enthusiasm wowed audiences this week as members of Killarney Musical Society hit the stage.</h3>
It had been a number of years since they got on stage due to the pandemic but there was a great feeling of exhilaration when they finally tread the boards on Tuesday, again Wednesday and finally last night (Thursday).
For up to three hours a cast of 109, including 36 children and 25 teenagers, performed to their heart&#8217;s content in a variety show called &lsquo;A Musical Journey&rsquo; in the INEC.
It had been a huge team effort from months of rehearsals to hours of planning and costume making as well as set design and more!
Songs and performances included Matilda, The Greatest Showman, Beauty &amp; the Beast, Hairspray, Dear Evan Hansen and many more in what was an epic production.
&#8220;We got great support from the schools,&#8221; speaking about the first show, Linda O&#8217;Donoghue, PRO for the Killarney Musical Society, told the Killarney Advertiser.
&#8220;They came to see their classmates and teachers.&#8221;
She added that all audiences &#8220;were very appreciative also&#8221; and that there were fabulous spot prizes and vouchers and goodies from local businesses, up for grabs.
Marie Slattery O&rsquo;Sullivan prepared fabulous spot prizes.
&#8220;She got vouchers and goodies from local businesses and prepared a huge hamper for first prize which was won by Rosie Healy from Glenflesk. There were four other great prizes also.&#8221;
