The AGM of the Amateur Drama Council of Ireland took place today in Athlone and was a very positive event, providing our members with an opportunity to review the season gone out, to prepare for the coming drama season, and to network with other festivals and catch up with friends.
Congratulations to our newly elected National Chairman, John Keane from West Clare Drama Festival - we wish him every success in the two years ahead.
A heartfelt thank you to Liam Hannaway for two excellent years of leadership as Chairman - Liam’s dedication and positivity have been greatly appreciated. We’re delighted that Liam now takes on the role of President.
Today also marked John Travers’ last meeting as a member of the National Executive Council, after holding an officer’s position for the past 12 years. Sincere thanks to John for his outstanding commitment and long-standing service to the ADCI.
