Ahoy campers!

It gives me great pleasure to put you all out of your misery and announce the list of nominees and categories for this year's DCU Annual Drama Awards (DADAs) !!

It's been a phenomenal year for DCU Drama, and I can tell you, it wasn't easy selecting winners from this pool of severely talented people!

The glorious ceremony will take place in Matt Weldon's (aka The Slipper), across the road from the Ballymun Road entrance, upstairs, Monday 24th April (tonight) at 7pm SHARP.

The DADAs will follow directly after the DCU Drama AGM, pt II! We still have to finish electing a committee, so get over to the Slipper at 7pm to cast your vote! The sooner the AGM is over, the sooner we can start the awards!

Oh, and the best part of all? THREE EURO DRINKS!

YES THAT'S RIGHT, THREE EURO DRINKS!

See y'all at the Slipper,



THE 2005 – 2006 DCU Drama
