A new decade and the end of pub drama for St. Brigid’s Drama Group. From 1990 until 1994 the group performed in small venues in Scholes Lane and in Duke St. These venues Operated under th banner of the Droichead Arts Centre. The group performed a variety of plays; 1990 – Sive by John B. Keane produced by a Kerryman, Tom Higgins.. In 1991 St. Brigid’s produced two very different comedies,
an “English Farce Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow” produced by Tony Callery and “My Three Angels” set on a tropical island produced by Ambrose McGinnity.

Again in 1992 the group produced two radically different plays. In May Anthony Lenihan produced “One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest” and the pre Christmas production was’The Black Stranger’ a melodrama set in Famine times with all proceeds going to Concern to aid famine relief in Somalia. 

In 1993 St. Brigid’s used the hall in Our Lady’s College in Greenhills to perform ‘Translations’ by Brian Friel, produced by Brian Colreavy. 1994 saw the long awaited opening of a purpose built theatre with seating capacity for 160 at its present location in the Municipal Centre in Stockwell St. Our first production in the venue was ‘The Ash Fire’ produced by Regina Clarke. In 1995 the group was in crisis with no-one available to produce a play.

Luckily for the future of the group Des Mc Ginty came to the rescue. He produced “Home’ by Paul Mercer, a play with a huge cast of 23 people which revitalised the group. 

Another change of direction in 1997 saw St. Brigid’s perform ‘Medea’ by Euripides, produced by Anthony Lenihan with the use of masks, choreography and an open stage. An international classic play ‘Blood Wedding’ by Frederico Garcia Lorca was the choice for 1998, produced by Martin Collins and again using an open stage. St. Brigids Drama group was continuing to adapt, change and be innovative approaching a new millennium.
