Solpadeine Is My Boyfriend hits the GB Shaw Theatre in Carlow this Friday night and I had a chance to catch up with writer and actor Stefanie Preissner to chat about the show, its development, background and touring both nationally and internationally since she launched the show at the 2012 Dublin Fringe Festival.

On Friday night last, Kats Theatre Group, one of the longest established in Kilkenny, launched One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest at the Upstairs Gallery in the Watergate Theatre. The show performs at the Watergate this coming November but I managed to catch up with PRO and actor Shay Lawlor at the launch to find out how things are progressing with the show and what audiences can expect in November.
