SHOW – VENUE THEATRE, RATOATH, SATURDAY 25TH APRIL, 2026.
JUN/SEN INFANTS should dress as Munchkins and they should arrive for the show, dressed in their costume. You can google ideas and buy the costume online or of course you can create your own wonderful masterpiece. Mad hair, mad colours, braids, ribbons, plaits, buns etc. The boys can have gel maybe, just to make them feel like a character. You could also maybe draw a curly moustache.
THIS SECTION IS JUST FOR THE OLDER CHILDREN 1ST – 6TH CLASS. If your child has a part, they should dress for their relevant part. (We will give out the parts when we have covered all aspects of the show and when we have given ourselves and the children time to explore each discipline – music, dance and script)
TICKET PRICES are €15 for adults. Children, students and OAP’S €10. Please note that all the seats have excellent and equal viewing so you do not need to come too early to get a good seat.
