Mamma
Mia Gala Premier for Charity
 Thursday July 10 promises to be a
fantastic evening of fashion, fun and music as West End Styles and
Network South Tipperary host the gala screening of Mamma Mia, the smash
hit musical. The deserving beneficiaries are Breast Cancer Awareness
and Cancer Research, causes which are all too familiar to many of us.
The evening will kick off with a Wine and Cheese Reception at 7.00pm in
the foyer of Clonmel Omniplex, courtesy of Superquinn. As the music in
the movie features many ABBA hits, it has been decided to use the 70's
theme - gala goers have the option of dressing up in 70's gear, with
the incentive being a prize for the best dressed specially designed and
donated by silversmith Rory O'Donoghue, Irishtown.
The organizers have also organized a raffle with some fantastic prizes,
including a, a 15" LCD TV, donated by Slatterys, Clonmel, a Brennan's
Hotel Break, a Wine Buff Wine Tasting Course and lots of vouchers.
There will also be a door prize of a hotel break, kindly donated by M
& S Leady. Gala tickets and raffle tickets are available from
West End Styles in O'Connell Street, The Book Market in Market Place
and the Narrow Space, Mitchel Street, as well as from members of
Network South Tipperary. Tickets are just €20 and raffle
tickets are €5 each with a book of 5 just €20.
For those who missed the smash hit that is Mamma Mia, timeless ABBA
songs such as Dancing Queen, I Have a Dream, Voulez-Vous, and Take a
Chance on Me, are ingeniously woven into an enchanting tale of love,
laughter and friendship. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter's quest
to discover the identity of her father brings 3 men from her mother's
past back to the Greek island paradise they last visited 20 years ago.
The mother is played by Meryl Streep and with 2 of the possible fathers
being played by Colin Firth and Pierce Brosnan. More than 30 million
people have enjoyed the stage productions in cities around the world
which augers well for the movie. So why not be amongst the first in
South Tipperary to see the movie by buying a ticket for the gala
screening on July 10. In doing so you will be helping raise much needed
funds for Breast Cancer Awareness and Cancer Research. And if you fancy
winning a specially designed piece by silversmith Rory O'Donoghue, why
not root out your best 70's gear and strut your stuff in the foyer of
the Clonmel Omniplex? |
