THE Causeway community was out in force last night for a fantastic night of glitz and glamour at the ‘Oskars’.
The Causeway Community Action Group Oskars was held in the Ballyroe Heights Hotel as a fundraiser to help purchase the Shannon Ballroom in the village.
Produced by Dublin-based company, Kevin Rowe Events, the format saw seven short movies featuring local actors shot on location in Causeway, with a cast of over 100 involved.
The actors put in weeks of work rehearsing while the movies were shot over two weekends and later edited down to 1o minutes each. The actors didn’t get to see the end product until the screenings last night.
