Sandyford Little Theatre Company

Sandyford Little Theatre Company Sandyford Little Theatre was founded in 1934. We produce plays that make people smile & think. We are at present welcoming new membership.

In the past decade a reinvigorated Sandyford Little Theatre Company has emerged as one of the leading players in the local theatre scene. Striving for excellence in all aspects of our productions, we are noted for our high standards both in artistic and technical areas. We choose well written narrative plays that are both entertaining and thought provoking. Performing twice annually at The Mill Th

eatre we are also looking forward to taking our shows on the road reminiscent of our roots. If you would like to be considered visit Join Us. Our beginnings

Fit-Up theatre was a regular feature of social life in Ireland in the 1930′s with up to 50 companies on the road at the height of their popularity. At a time when people were preoccupied with rationing and the ‘Emergency’ the arrival of the Fit-Ups brought welcome distraction as a well as entertainment to many a small town. In 1934, a travelling theatre company arrived in Stepaside Village at the end of a long season on the road. One of the group, Mike O’Grady, remained behind and formed the Sandyford Little Theatre. Other founder members were Mick Doyle, Bridie Doherty, Anna Doherty and Charlie Rourke. The Sandyford Library, Lambs Cross, became the regular venue for their productions.

A shout out to our friends in Rathfarnham Theatre Group and their upcoming production,

"Our Few and Evil Days" by Mark O'Rowe.

About the play:

"It's a very different type of play, with characters talking over one another, interrupting each other, and having some very explosive conversations!!!"

Performed in The Abbey in 2014, and seen on the circuit in 2020, prior to Lockdown, Rathfarnham Theatre Group are delighted to bring it now to The Mill Theatre Dundrum from 22nd to 25th April. Carmel Cullen is directing and they've got a great cast.
