The Adventures of the wet Senor
Thursday 18th November| 8pm | €18/€16

The Adventures is based on the story of Francisco de Cuella, a Spanish Armada captain shipwrecked off the North West coast of Ireland. His story is told through a mix of music and theatre with stunning performers and specially composed live music.

Writer and director Donal O'Kelly of Benbo Productions first conjured up the idea of presenting this story with members of Kíla alomost two years ago. At the end of 2009, the group performed a 30 minute piece and following on from the great response the received, the went back to the drawing board and this year brought the full length production to stages all around the region.

Paul Mosse @ The Gallery
Two and a Half D |Paul Mosse
Opening this Friday 5th November 5.30pm. All welcome

continues until 16th December

Paul Mosse's work springs from an interest in space, scale and the tactile world of the senses. Many pieces are produced at the same time, where they sometimes join or divide and may be worked on an odd for years. The end result is textured and sculptural, and can be three-dimensional sculpture proper, but it is usually resolved as "2 1/2 D painting".

The work in this exhibition is the result of a number of years in the studio. It is all mixed media and uses a range of non-traditional materials (plastic pellets, polystyrene, sawdust, nails and screws) as well as paper, paint and wood.

The exhibition opens on Friday 5th November 5.30pm - 7.00pm. All are welcome.
