Excitement is building as one of the region's oldest musical societies is hitting the stage this weekend with a classic fan favourite.
Longford's well known St Mel's Musical Society was founded in 1978 and has brought dozens of shows to the stage since.
The society will perform 'Me and My Girl' in St Mel's College in Longford Town, from Easter Monday to Saturday the 26th of April.
St Mel's Musical Society first performed the show in the year 2000, with several members of that cast and crew involved with the new production.
The show has been described as a musical comedy featuring singing, dancing and a story set in 1930s England.

St Mel's Musical Society Treasurer Eimear Reynolds says they pride themselves on being open to everyone who wants to take part:
