COMMUNITY NOTES: CLAREMORRIS - WESTERN PEOPLE (JANUARY 14 EDITION)
Hollywood excitement has descended on the villages of Ballyglass, Mayo Abbey and Facefield, as six films are being made in the area. The films are part of a fundraiser for Mayo Gaels GAA Club who wish to develop an astro-turf pitch in conjunction with the local school.
The films being made for the fundraiser are local versions of ‘Rocky,’ ‘Braveheart’ and ‘The Field,’ as well as Irish favourites, ‘Waking Ned Devine,’ ‘Kilnascully’ and ‘Father Ted’. The films will have local actors and directors and will be shown at a gala, black-tie awards night in the McWilliam Park Hotel on March 15th.
