  • A Word from the Societies Officer
    A Word from the Societies Officer It has been an extraordinary year for societies in NUI Galway, a year which reinforces the view that the societies are at the very heart of the cultural and social life of the campus. With over 7000 students signing on to societies during both societies days this year, their can be no doubt about their continuing popularity. With a turn-over of over €600,000 this year their range and level of activity can not be in question. When you consider that over €150,000 of this was donated to charity the generosity and altruism of the society individuals is a shining example to all of us. It has been a pleasure facilitating and supporting the societies in their unbelievably diverse range of activities. This year our aim was to improve societies’ infrastructures and facilities, to this end workshops for the various committee members were organised. The success of the societies organisational, record keeping and book keeping skills is clearly evident in this publication. In the following pages you will uncover, in the societies own words, the fascinating and diverse range of activities they engaged in and also the immense sense of pride and joy they have in their achievements. The purpose of this book is not only to celebrate the year that the societies have had and to keep a record for future years but also to acknowledge the hard work, imagination, determination and creativity of the dedicated committee members. Congratulations to all of you. This year saw a number of reunions. It was obvious from the alumni that the years spent in societies, while in university, enriched their experiences and forged life long friendships.

Druid’s artistic partnership with Irish playwright Tom Murphy is also examined as it assisted in launching Druid’s international touring when Murphy’s Conversations on a Homecoming was the first Druid production to travel outside of the United States/United Kingdom festival circuit. Keywords: Druid Theatre, Tom Murphy, Ireland, funding, Irish theatre. Druid Theatre commenced production in the summer of 1975 with a repertory of three plays: J.M. Synge’s The Playboy of the Western World, Brian Friel’s The Loves of Cass Maguire and Kevin Laffan’s It’s a Two Foot Six Inches Above the Ground World.
