The Schoolyard Theatre Events

The Schoolyard Theatre is a community-based establishment. It aims to provide a space where people can come together to appreciate and participate in the Arts. Since it was opened in 1993 The Schoolyard Theatre has made and continues to make an enormous impact on the cultural lives of the community, not alone in Charleville, but in the wider North Cork /South Limerick areas and future afield. It has contributed greatly to heightening people's awareness of their own culture through the plays written by Irish authors and staged at the theatre, and that of other lands by visiting groups.
