The Light Theatre Company are celebrating Bloomsdayin Rostrevor later this month.
Bloomsday - the day on which James Joyce’s novel Ulysses takes place - is celebrated internationally and Rostrevor is the only place in the North of Ireland to which the named character comes. In the ‘Sirens’ episode Miss Douce, a barmaid at the Ormond Hotel tells Stephen Dedalus that whilst holidaying in Rostrevor she got a ’bronze tan’ on the Strand.
Get yourselves dressed up in your best 40’s clothing and join the fun:
