Description
DescriptionSt Patrick's Day performance of "Glanasheen", a three-act Irish comedy written by Cecil Clark and produced by Joe Treagle.
As described by the Queensland Times: ' The action took place on the "village green" with its vine-covered wishing well and background of rose-trellised cottages, and was enhanced by the Irish brogues of the players, appropriate musical selections, and humorous handling of the characterisations.'
'The story centred on the Doran and Molloy families, which become united when Mrs. Doran (Lyla McGurie) "gently" persuades Councillor Mat Molloy (Les Hourigan) to marry her; also the romance which develops between Eileen Doran (Clare Kent) and handsome young American seaman (Phillip Seymour) who visits "Glanasheen" in search of hidden treasure.'References (online)"Glanasheen" was Great Success, Queensland Times, Friday 18th March 1949, p.2
