Clare musical societies were among the big winners at the AIMS awards.
Three Clare-based productions were nominated by the Association of Irish Musical Societies (AIMS), the body supporting amateur musical theatre in Ireland.
Ennis Musical Society took top honours for Best House Management for the second year in a row, winning the award with their immersive production of The Witches of Eastwick at glór.
Elsewhere, Muse Productions in Shannon were recognised with a Special Adjudicator’s Award nomination for their bold staging of Forever Plaid performed in the Hope Café in Shannon, while Shannon Musical Society also received two nominations for their high-energy production of Cry-Baby.
To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Ennis Musical Society Chairperson, Ciara Lynch, Founding member of Muse and the director of the recent award-winning production “Forever Plaid”, Martin McNelis, and outgoing Chairperson of Shannon Musical Society, Vicky Cassley.
