Hi everyone,

We hope you are all keeping well and looking forward to the week off for midterm. A massive thank you to everyone who has attended our events this month, and to those who have gotten started with Minis rehearsals as well! Here is your October recap of events and news….

Firstly, a quick rundown of this month’s events. In October we held three Wednesday Workshops with Brian Dalton, Mark Lehane and Joe Keane, three Commuter Workshops with Oisin Reynolds and Jane Richardson (Dance Soc Collab), John Brennan and Catherine Gallagher (Music Soc Collab), and Halle Cahill. Alongside these workshops we held a Movie Screening Night: The Rocky Horror Picture Show, a Karaoke Roulette open mic night in O’Neill’s Bar, and finally a Halloween Quiz Night: Musical Theatre Intervarsity Collab with UCD, DCU, Trinity and RSCI! We hope you enjoyed all these events and are looking forward to more after the break!

Secondly, I would like to remind you all of the Minis Launch Night which will take place on the 4th of November in the SU Venue. This is a fabulous night for the casts of each show to get to meet each other and also for friends and family of the casts, along with other society members to get a sneak peak of each show!

Finally, our amazing First Year Rep John Brennan has made this month’s Spotify playlist, which I have linked down below, so get listening!

Firstly, we will begin with ‘Tea and Chats” on Monday 23rd September from 1pm-3pm in Rye Events Space. This is a great opportunity to talk to committee members and meet other members of the society, so be sure to call in for a cuppa!

Secondly, we will be hosting an Open Mic in O’Neill’s Bar on Main Street starting at 7pm on Tuesday 24th September. The theme for this year’s first open mic is ‘My Favourite Musical’. Make sure you don’t miss out on a night of gorgeous performances from the society’s favourite musicals!

Hello lovelies,

I hope you're all having a good week! As some of you may know each year the Students' Union picks a charity to partner with to be our charity of the year and this year it is MS Ireland. So we have decided to hold a MUMS Charity Week from the 22nd to the 25th of February where all the funds will go to MS Ireland. 

All events for the week will cost €2 and all money raised will go to MS Ireland. Our first event of the week will be next Monday the 22nd of February at 8pm, and will be a fabulous, fun quiz on Zoom. 

Our second event will be a Zoom dance workshop on Tuesday, the 23rd of February at 8pm. This workshop will be with our super talented chair person, and co-choreographer of the 2021 Inters production, Emma Thornton. This workshop will feature dances from the two most voted for shows on our Instagram poles last week, Kinky Boots and Hairspray!

Our third event of the week will be on Wednesday the 24th of February at 8pm and this will be an open mic on Zoom, so bring your snacks, drinks and join us in singing out our favourite tunes in a good old fashioned open mic just like as if we were in the SU. 

The final event to bring our charity week to a close will be our Masked Singer Masquerade Ball on Thursday the 25th of February at 7pm. We want you all to dress up in whatever fancy gear you want, and event a mask to keep in tune with the masquerade theme. On the night we will have our MUMS Masked Singer competition featuring some of your fellow MUMS members, and we might even have a premier or two of things we've been working on to show you...;) So be sure to dust off your fancy gear, bring your snacks, drinks and your party mood!

We hope you will all join us in force to help raise funds for this amazing charity and have a good week while doing so. Further details about Zoom links and how to pay etc. will be sent out in an email next week, they will also be available on out MULife page and on our socials so keep your eyes peeled. 

I hope you have a great week and I can't wait to see you all next week!

Last Night we held our first open mic night - and the turn out was amazing! The talent within this society is spectacular and it showcases the spirit of musical theater and how this society can feel like a family. Many people got up to sing, and others just joined in with them which is just as amazing. We can't for the next open mic night to top this one!

This week our production team worked endlessly as we conducted our auditions for our Mini Musical showcase for the 19/20 academic year. After listening to over 105 auditions over the space of four days, the team had a very difficult decisions to make and discussions began on who would be cast as who and in what musical people would play a role in. Eventually, our production team made their decisions and our casts have been set for the Mini Musicals this year! Well done to everyone that auditioned and congratulations to those who received roles! 

On the 10th of October 2019, out very on Gavin Murphy conducted a welcome class to the society. In this event, Having introduced himself to old and new members, and had everyone moving from the get go with physical warm ups, a musical theatre people tend to do. Members took pat in brainteasers, improvisation and much more all while getting to know new people. Gavin's idea allowed members to introduce themselves to the society and got the ball rolling on our events for the year and allowing members to get to know each other in a fun and interesting way.
