Anyone got a couple of quid to spare?
News from the Sligo Champion is that the Hawkswell
theatre may not survive past this year. The Arts Council have cut funding,
and it doesn't look like the management have enough to keep theatre
operating
“The situation is critical. We are facing a huge operating deficit. As
things stand, we will be able to keep the doors open until the end of this
year, but we cannot guarantee anything beyond that”, the theatre’s Marketing
Manager, Mr. Joe Masterson confirmed this morning." - Saturday, May 29, 2004
