The Inaugural Clare Drama Radio Play Festival will begin on Scariff Bay Community Radio (SBCR) this Saturday 27th February with a special festival programme hosted by Eoin O’Hagan at 8pm.
The event will continue on Saturdays, and Sundays, presented by Festival PRO Tom Hanley, until the final night on Easter Sunday April 4th. SBCR has joined forces with CDF who are one of Ireland’s longest running amateur drama festivals having started in 1946.
The Clare Drama Radio Play Festival is a perfect addition to the schedule of SBCR and an antidote to the continuing lockdown for both the listeners to the local station as well as the devotees of amateur drama throughout Ireland. This brand new drama festival is going to be a feast of drama for those starved of it because of Covid 19.
