The Play

"Our Town" is a play that explores the everyday lives of the residents of Grover’s Corners, a small American town, focusing on themes of community, love, and the passage of time. Through the stories of families like the Webbs and the Gibbs, the play highlights both the beauty and transience of ordinary moments. The Stage Manager serves as a narrator, guiding the audience through the cycles of life, marriage, and death, ultimately prompting reflection on what it means to truly appreciate life.

The Group

Lislea Dramatic Players was founded in the 1940s and has been active in every decade since. They began participating on the Festival circuit in 2008 and have been in the All-Ireland Finals on several occasions since 2008. This play has given us a unique opportunity to celebrate our rich history while welcoming fresh talent. It not only brings together many of our seasoned actors but also introduces an exciting new generation—several young performers who will make their debut on the Festival circuit, marking the start of an inspiring journey.
