The Alliance for Animal Rights and Circuswatch Ireland welcomes last night’s landmark decision by Fingal County Council. This decision instigated by Socialist Party’s Cllr Clare Daly is the first of its kind in this country. It will mean that ‘wild’ animals will not be allowed perform in Circuses in the Fingal area.We congratulate all of the Council for making the unanimous compassionate decision which is the first of its kind in Ireland.

‘We are looking on this as the beginning of the end for circuses with animals in Ireland. This is the first council to get this motion passed unanimously (despite the issue being raised in other areas in the past). Hundreds of emails were sent to Fingal councillors from animal rights activists which helped enlighten them on the plight of animals confined in the beastwagons of travelling circuses.’ Bernie Wright, Press Officer AFAR’.

Update to the open letter published on indymedia on the 20th of September 2007. Same sorry old story. No responsibility taken by the authorities who are preventing me from having my car in a public place, or driving any vehicle, due to their on-going vendetta. I am hopeful that the minister will take my complaint seriously and deal with it appropriately. Otherwise, its more hardship without any answers. read full story / add a comment

Award-winning Danish theatre company The Telling Theatre will perform their adaptation of Beowulf, at the Players Theatre at 8 pm on 20 October 2007. The show will be followed by a discussion with the performers.

With this production, the Narrative Arts Club would like to invite Irish performers and listeners to new ways of thinking about storytelling, in accordance with the club's motto: "Forget what storytelling was, and find out what it might be."

The "storytelling theatre" concept offers an exciting opportunity for the much-neglected art of storytelling to compete with the other urban arts, such as the conventional theatre, stand-up comedy and the cinema, for the attentions of savvy young urbanites at prime city-centre venues. read full story / add a comment
