Macnas Volunteers needed, Dublin, September 10th - 11th

Hi everyone,

Macnas are returning to Dublin for their first show here in 12 years as part of ABSOLUT Fringe bounce2

- event blurb here, and we are looking for people who would like to be part of it. As the info below states, we only have volunteer positions available, no paid performance positions, however the performance positions do not require special skills, although they may involve carrying (not manipulating) fire torches. In other words, this is not a callout for free fire performers, but rather something that may be of interest to the Irish fire community, and promises to be a really exciting show - and I'd love to see some familiar faces around grouphug

MACNAS
"The Wild Hunt and The Sleepwalker - A Nocturnal Ballad" will open ABSOLUT Fringe 2010 in spectacular fashion. In one of Dublin's most astounding and historic locations, The National Museum of Ireland at Collins Barracks, this outdoor event will involve more than 100 performers and thousands of spectators. After a twelve year absence, Macnas return to Dublin for this epic visual feast.
