West Cork Fit-Up Theatre Festival go well b

THERE is no room for divas performing at the West Cork Fit-Up Theatre Festival, now in its sixth year. The aim of the enterprising festival, produced by Blood in the Alley Theatre Productions, is to bring theatre to far flung places during the summer. It takes in Ballydehob, Kilcrohane, Goleen, Heir Island, Sherkin Island, Bere Island, Lisavaird, Union Hall and Whiddy Island.

Stars such as Glenroe’s Geraldine Plunkett and Rosaleen Linehan have played in community halls at this festival, travelling the highways and byways of West Cork to get to them, as well as taking ferries.
