Hey everyone! Getting a small group together for a night at Arthur’s—with good music & good people! 🎷 🎟 Purchase Your Tickets Here: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/the-dirty-jazz-club-tickets-1408301631089?aff=ebdssbdestsearch (Not my event—just bringing a few people together to head along.) The Dirty Jazz Club have been part of Dublin’s underground jazz scene for over two decades—known for their loose, expressive style and deep musical interplay. Less about performance, more about feel. Think Coltrane, Miles Davis, and that late-night, slightly unpredictable energy. Hope to see you there!

Informal weekly meet up of ukulele players of all skill levels for jam session and individual performances ( optional!) Please email ukuhooligansdl@gmail.com if you'd like to come along. All welcome.

**Written by Mick Flannery, *The House Must Win* is a gritty new musical drama** **that sweeps audiences into the emotional undertow of its story and song.** Please secure your own ticket for Sunday afternoon matinee performance. Welcome to include your seat number in the comments for others to purchase adjacent seats: I'm in seat D5. Legendary Irish comedian, actor and broadcaster **Tommy Tiernan** will make his musical theatre debut in the role of Ray, while rising Belfast actor and singer-songwriter **Tabitha Smyth** will play Grace, Ray’s daughter. They will feature as part of a sterling ensemble cast of seven alongside **Ferdia Walsh-Peelo** (*Sing Street*), **Niall McNamee** (*Saipan*), **John McCarthy**, **Orlagh De Bhaldraithe** and **Damian Kearney**. Directed by **Julie Kelleher**, with **Liam Robinson** (*Hadestown*) as Music Supervisor and **Ciarán Bagnall** on Set and Lighting Design, the creative team has worked closely with Mick over the past three years, shaping the world he has envisioned through this new script and its twenty-one songs. Set on the western edge of Ireland in the 1970s, it follows two brothers living with the odds stacked against them. Each takes a different path in the hope of leading a “good” life, both trying to honour the woman who holds their hearts. In a town of backroom poker games, secrets and bribes, broken families and broken hearts, the people of this place must learn how to play the cards they’ve been dealt – and discover what it truly means when *the house must win.* Twenty years ago, Mick Flannery released his debut album *Evening Train*, originally written in response to a college assignment to “write a musical.” Mick did exactly that, though at the time he focused solely on the lyrics and music. Two decades later, following various iterations and workshop developments, he has now written the script for the first time, bringing to life the songs from that debut album alongside ten new compositions to create *The House Must Win*.

It has a unique poker dice system and a bunch of other fun and wacky mechanics. You will be delving beneath the vibrant city of Thul-Zurein to explore its festering sewers. Rumour has it that great treasures and even greater dangers lie within! * **🐦‍⬛ Scott** with *Kenku Bin Wizards*, a Grant Howitt One-page RPG. You are a KENKU, a grotty little crow person, and a member of a BIN WIZARD coven to boot. In an effort to expand your bin magic, you want to hijack a delivery of spellbooks bound for *The Wizard* while preventing your rivals, the hyper-zealous Kobold Kult(TM), from getting it first. Have you got what it takes? Or will you be TAKEN by the terrifying BINMAN? * 🚀 **Adam** with *[Lady Blackbird](https://johnharper.itch.io/lady-blackbird)*, a steampunk space opera adventure. Lady Blackbird is an Imperial noble fleeing from an arranged marriage to be with her secret lover, the pirate king Uriah Flint. To reunite with him, she has hired Cyrus Vance - a notorious smuggler - and the crew of his skyship, *The Owl*. However, *The Owl* has been captured by an Imperial cruiser. How will Lady Blackbird and the others escape? What dangers lie in their path on the way to the pirate king’s lair? *** Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
