Teatro Alla Scala: The Temple of Wonders is the
story of one of the world’s most exclusive music
and performing arts venues.
In spring 2015 Milan paid tribute to Leonardo
Da Vinci by holding an extraordinary exhibition
event at the Palazzo Reale. Leonardo Da Vinci:
The Genius In Milan explores his work as never
seen before, telling the story of the artist’s world
and the treasures he left us.
St Peter’s And The Papal Basilicas Of Rome
brings completely new footage of St Peter’s, St
John Lateran, St Mary Major, St Paul Outside
The Walls and the works of art enshrined within
them to the big screen.
The film leads us through the main historical,
musical, social and political events in La Scala’s
238-year history. The story is beautifully brought
to life on the big screen through statements
and commentary from musicians, experts and
aficionados, and features photographs, musical
scores, paintings and videos from centuries of
archive material.
Pietro Marani, the curator of the 2015 exhibition,
and some of the world’s leading experts on
Leonardo tell a story that could open new
perspectives and reveal extraordinary things
about Leonardo Da Vinci the painter, sculptor,
scientist, anatomist, botanist and architect.
Antonio Paolucci, director of the Vatican
Museums, Paolo Portoghesi, internationally
renowned architect, Claudio Strinati, celebrated
art historian, and Micol Forti, director of the
Vatican Museums Collection Of Contemporary
Art, guide us through the story of the basilicas,
their evolution over the centuries and their most
famous works of art.

By the Edwardian era, the McKinney’s well-appointed house, Sentry Hill, was evidence of the
prosperity and social status they attained through their successful farming in South Antrim. The
McKinney’s could not have foreseen the flood of carnage and destruction that would sweep across
the European continent in 1914. It was a tide of effects that would be felt across the island of Ireland
and the rest of the world. Sentry Hill would not escape untouched as young Tom McKinney, the heir
to the farm, joined the Royal Fusiliers in 1914 and died on July 19th, 1916 as a result of his injuries
at the Battle of the Somme. The play Tom is his story, based on his letters and journals.
Written and Directed by Philip Johnston.

well and keen to resume her life with Pete! This unexpected revelation
leads to a series of hilarious situations as they try to find a way out of this
desperate plight without upsetting either of Pete’s wives or his second
wife’s powerful mother.
Another riotous comedy from the author of Beyond a Joke, Look Who’s
Talking, and Bedside Manners.

Macbeth, the Thane of Glamis, receives a
prophecy from a trio of witches that one day
he will become King of Scotland. Consumed
by ambition and spurred to action by his wife,
Macbeth murders his king and takes the
throne for himself. In this lavish adaptation
of Shakespeare’s classic tragedy, Michael
Fassbender plays Macbeth and Marion Cotillard
plays Lady Macbeth with a supporting cast
featuring Paddy Considine, Elizabeth Dibecki and
David Thewlis.

Hothouse Flowers return to The Old Courthouse
stage six years after their triumphant show
which took place in the venue’s opening season.
Since the release of their last CD, Into Your Heart
Hothouse Flowers have been playing steadily
around Ireland, America, Great Britain, Japan
and Europe. Their shows last between two and
three hours depending on the level of fever in
the room. Most recently their sound has been
enhanced and reinvigorated by the return of
Peter O’Toole on bass, bouzouki and vocals.
They call upon their grand repertoire to create
a show that is unique to the time and place. No
two shows are the same and this one is not to
be missed!

Tom
By the Edwardian era, the McKinney’s wellappointed house, Sentry Hill, was evidence of
the prosperity and social status they attained
through their successful farming in South
Antrim. The McKinney’s could not have foreseen
the flood of carnage and destruction that would
sweep across the European continent in 1914.
It was a tide of effects that would be felt across
the island of Ireland and the rest of the world.
Sentry Hill would not escape untouched as
young Tom McKinney, the heir to the farm, joined
the Royal Fusiliers in 1914 and died on July
19th, 1916 as a result of his injuries at the Battle
of the Somme. The play Tom is his story, based
on his letters and journals.

Brooklyn tells the profoundly moving story of Eilis Lacey (Saoirse Ronan),
a young Irish immigrant navigating her way through 1950s Brooklyn.
Lured by the promise of America, Eilis departs Ireland and the comfort of
her mother’s home for the shores of New York City. The initial shackles
of homesickness quickly diminish as a fresh romance sweeps Eilis into
the intoxicating charm of love. But soon, her new vivacity is disrupted by
her past, and Eilis must choose between two countries and the lives that
exist within. Based on Colm Tóibín’s award-winning book and featuring
an Oscar-nominated performance by Saoirse Ronan, the film also stars
Domhnall Gleeson and Julie Walters.

Long hailed as one of Ireland’s leading songwriters and performers, Kieran
Goss’s music has won him fans across the globe. But if his songs have
made him a star, his live shows have made him a legend. Live on stage is
where Kieran Goss really shines.
Kieran will perform the first half of the show solo and will be joined on
stage in the second half by harmony singer Annie Kinsella. As Time Out
Magazine wrote of their performance together:
“Individually, they are both gifted singers but when they sing together,
magic happens… the harmonies, the chemistry… just sublime.”
This is a rare chance to see Kieran performing in this beautiful intimate
venue.

Two Sore Legs makes a triumphant return to the Old Courthouse following
a sell-out performance last year. Starring Maria Connolly in a tour-deforce performance, Brenda Murphy’s autobiographical play explores her
mother’s relationship with a married man in Belfast in the 1950s. The
play explores the pain, the joy and the fall-out of this extraordinary family

This exhibition is drawn from The Niland Collection and is presented in collaboration with The Model,
home of The Niland Collection, Sligo.
This exhibition consists of a number of the lithograph brush drawings Louis Le Brocquy created as
illustrations to Thomas Kinsella’s 1969 translation of the Irish legend the Táin Bo Cuailnge (The Cattle
Raid of Cooley) published by Dolmen Press. The Táin is the centre-piece of the eighth-century Ulster
cycle of heroic tales. The book is illustrated with 31 lithograph brush drawings by le Brocquy, 15 of
which are in this exhibition. The Táin has been hailed by scholars as the greatest Irish Artist’s Book
of the twentieth century. Scholars have noted that these illustrations with their precise, pared-down
mark making had a great influence on much of le Brocquy’s later work, and thus have argued that
the Dolmen commission was central to the artist’s career.
The Centre for Contemporary Printmaking at
Seacourt offers access to the widest range of
printmaking techniques in Ireland.
Thur 28 Apr – Thur 2 June
Rathmore Art Club was formed over 10 years

Society of Ireland, the Art Society of Ulster and
the Ulster Women Artists. We are delighted to
display the work of their very talented members.

Making A Mark is an innovative community arts

Antrim Castle Gardens are of the most unique
and historically intact gardens in the UK. The
former seat of the Skeffington family Antrim
Castle occupied its imposing setting on the
banks of the Sixmilewater River since 1610.
Seacourt artists were asked to respond to
the history of the Antrim Castle site and have
produced a body of original prints in a range
of techniques including etching, relief and
digital processes. The project was developed in
partnership with Clotworthy House.

Kevin Hamilton is a local artist living and
working in Northern Ireland, whose work creates
a different way of looking at what we see
every day. Taking landmarks that the people
of Northern Ireland see regularly, he explores
the detail and beauty of our built environment
by creating a kaleidoscopic view of colour
and pattern. His work aims to encourage the
viewer to realise the beauty in our everyday
environment and to urge us to stop and take
a closer look at what is around us in our daily
lives.
Tues 2 Aug – Sun 4 Sept
Abstract Nature is the current body of work by
Bellaghy based painter Hayley McErlean. The
artworks are inspired by everyday observations
of the surrounding natural world. From a glimpse
of a sunrise to the changing seasons, from a
beautiful tree to the unsettled weather and the
varying light and shapes that brings. Hayley
aspires to create pleasing paintings somewhere
between expressionist and abstraction.
Sat 2 - Sat 30 July
