The Banteer Drama Group was established in 1990 by Seamus O Keeffe, Dan Duggan, and Denis O Connell who, while chatting over a pint came up with the notion of staging a play.
They gathered a group and produced two one act plays in the local Community Centre. Although the group was drawing capacity crowds to the centre, they realised that it was not the most suitable venue for drama, and began seeking a new home for the group.

The Banteer Drama Group has travelled to many places down through the years, in its first season, the group toured The Field around the county, performing in Banteer, Killavullen, Doneraile, Cloghroe, Glanmire and Dromtarriffe.
