It's with sadness that we're sharing news of the passing of Mary Cradock.

Mary was a part of Lake Productions from our founding in 2018, most recently directing the 2024 and 2025 productions of Shirley Valentine.

From Lake' to Watergate Productions, Gaslight, Kilkenny's New Theatre Group, school theatre, pub theatre and beyond, the decades of Mary's love and drive for theatre will live long in the fabric of Kilkenny city and county.

Our condolences to Jim, Shane, Mark, Catherine, extended family and friends of Mary. May she rest in peace.

That’s a wrap!

The curtain falls on The Weir and our thanks to all who attended this week and last (and to a full house of students on Thursday morning). While we had to break for Friday’s scheduled performance, it’s been a whirlwind two weeks for shows and a busy few months to bring one of Conor McPherson’s finest works to the stage.

Our thanks also to Seamus Quigley and all the team at Thomastown Concert Hall and Community Centre, our show sponsors, supporters, friends of Lake Productions, media, our committee and all who’ve helped spread the word and bring The Weir to life.

We hope you enjoyed our staging of The Weir and, if you missed out, it won’t be long before we’re back with our next adventure.

A special thanks also to our crew including director Darren Donohoe, Dee Gibney, Emily Murray Kelly, Brendan Maguire, Jo-Ann Cody, Clare Gibbs, Terry Brennan and Ken McGuire.

Keep your eyes peeled for Brendan Gleeson, Owen McDonnell, Seán McGinley, Kate Phillips, and Tom Vaughan-Lawlor in a film adaptation, currently in production in Ireland.

Go raibh míle maith agaibh!

We've got some news that we never imagined sharing, but we've had to make the hard decision to cancel tonight's performance.

Our box office team have been working through bookings (and continues to) to get in touch with everyone already with tickets for tonight's show. Keep an eye on your email, or if in any doubt, you can reach our box office manager on 083 325 0617 who will happily assist.

To accommodate potential transfers to Saturday night, we've temporarily closed new ticket sales, but we look forward to seeing everyone for the final outing of The Weir at 8pm on Saturday.

Two shows left to go.

A busy day Thursday with our schools performance in the morning followed by the start of our final evening shows.

Tonight at 8pm, Saturday at 8pm and that’s all she wrote for The Weir.
