Calling all aspiring actors – Castle Players launch six-week drama workshops in Dundalk

A new six-week drama workshop series hosted by The Castle Players drama group invites people of all backgrounds and experience levels to explore the world of drama in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Running over six engaging sessions, the workshops are designed to introduce participants to key elements of performance, including teamwork, physical expression, voice, improvisation and character creation. Each week builds naturally on the last, helping attendees develop confidence and creativity while having plenty of fun along the way. No previous acting experience is required—just a willingness to take part and enjoy the process.

The workshops begin on Tuesday, 27th January 2026 at 7:45 p.m. and will take place at the Clan na Gael Social Centre, Ard Easmuinn, Dundalk (A91 RY77). The series offers an accessible opportunity for anyone curious about drama or looking to reconnect with their creative side.

The focus is on participation rather than performance. The sessions aim to help people discover their voice, meet new people, and work together as part of a creative team. Whether participants are complete beginners or experienced performers seeking a refresh, the workshops promise encouragement, inspiration, and plenty of laughter.

Booking and further information are available by contacting Pat McKenna (087 160 5319) or Nigel Clinton (086 077 9639). Participants must be over 18.

With an emphasis on creativity, confidence, and community, The Castle Players’ six-week drama workshop series offers a chance to step into the spotlight and discover or rediscover the joy of performance.
