THE latest production from the Light Opera Society of Tralee is garnering high praise indeed from members of the public and tonight it your last chance to catch it at Siamsa Tíre.

‘Chicago: A Musical Vaudeville’ has been described as the Society’s best ever production to the Musical Director, Aidan O’Carroll.

“Well people are saying that it’s the best they’ve ever seen in Siamsa…and not just by us. They’ve been reaching for superlatives. It’s basically a song and dance show and very fast moving. The plot is straightforward enough but there’s plenty of twists and turns and the music is just great,” said Aidan.
