We’ve set up a YouTube channel, which we’re grandiously calling IAMtv. Over the next while, we shall be uploading archival footage, as well as video from recent events. If you have footage of Irish Club events, that you’d like included, please email info@irishassociation.ca. Anything digital is easy, but we’ll always figure something out for older footage.
IAMtv is available at http://www.youtube.com/IrishAssociation

Fluffy Gardens is produced by Dublin animation company Monster and produced by Gerald O’Rourke. Fluffy Gardens is a daily series on RTE and we are hoping that if the Christmas special takes off and if enough people let Treehouse know they like it, that they will decide to run the entire series.
People can write to Treehouse at the following link to express their support of FLUFFY GARDENS.

Caryl Churchill is the award-winning, political, and sometimes controversial, writer of Fen, Top Girls, Cloud 9 and Vinegar Tom and the subject of this year Master Playwright Fest. An enigmatic figure, Caryl Churchill shuns the spotlight and doesn’t do interviews. So the best way to get to know this British playwright is through the festival’s plays and readings and the Churchill Unbound lecture series.
Tara Player’s ChurchillFest production is “A Number”. This is a tragedy but one that will leave you as much thoughtful as tearful. How would you feel to find out that you were a clone and not the original son? How might the original feel? How does a guilt-ridden father deal with the two? Enjoy an intimate theatre with a pint of Guinness before, after or during the show.
ChurchillPasses Only $69!
Enjoy all the plays and readings for $69!(save more than $100!) Call the MTC box office at 942-6537 or visit us at 174 Market Avenue .
