Clare Maguire - Director

The Fattest Dancer at St Bernadette's

By Thommas Kane Byrne @ Dublin Fringe Festival 2018 @ The Lir Academy

It’s the day before Julian La Blanc’s School of Dance and Drama’s annual showcase and everything is falling apart. Julian has absolutely had it with these little wagons with their spiky fingers and sickle feet. They haven’t a patch on him in his day.  He could have been a star. A real  bleeding contender he was.  Where did it all go wrong?  How did he end up in St Bernadette's Parish Hall, Ballybough?
