Life is a Carne-Val!
The 2010 National Fesitval (Carne-val) was an unforgettable four days that will live long in the memory of all who were there! It had it all from great workshops .... a digital treasure hunt.....karaoke..... a crazy kiteman.....sand-castles....a broken bone...and of course cupcakes.
Despite some early bad weather the campers persevered and the sun shone for most of our stay. Workshops were facilitated by Liam Halligan, Max Hafler, Sharon Cromwell, Miquel Barcelo and Sue Mythen.
The youth theatres who participated were:
- Backstage Youth Theatre, Longford
- Ballina Youth Theatre, Mayo
