Hi

Wow, what a week! Two new productions and lots of different opportunites for our younger members.

The industry is really taking off, thankfully says you (and me).

Being cheeky, we are still asking people to take a moment out to vote for Kevin for the IIA Awards. It is the last day that you can vote, so pleaseeeeee vote, thanks!!

Also, a great opportunity for a young aspiring actor to be a double in the Last Furlong.

And, boys aged 11 to 16 are needed!

TG4 are looking for an actor and your vid could win you €400.

Cheers
Derek
