Description
-
This appears to be a group of students accompanied by two college staff - Christy Townley (standing at back, extreme left) and Professor Diarmuid Murphy, professor of English, seated second from left). The table laden with trophies appears to indicate that this was the UCG Drama Group which was successful in winning a number of trophies for their theatrical productions. An Cumann Drámaíochta, the college based Irish language drama group, was also very successful in staging Irish language productions.
