ANU Production members woke up to some very good news this morning when they learned it had been nominated for two Irish Times Irish Theatre Awards ,including best costume design for Saileóg O’Halloran and the Judges Special Award for ANU: “To mark its work commemorating the Dublin Lockout, using the city as its set, and its reconfiguration of the audience as citizens.” It was a fitting acknowledgement of the huge impact ANU Productions had on the Centenary with its ground breaking LIVING THE LOCKOUT experience in 14 Henrietta Street in the summer, the dramatic re-enactment at the State Commemoration on August 31st, the THIRTEEN events of the Dublin Fringe Festival in the autumn and Remembering Alicia Commemoration in Glasnevin this month.
They deserve all our thanks and congratulations for helping make the Lockout Centenary memorable.
