Riverbank Productions proudly presents its musical version of the Robert Louis Stevenson classic novel. With pirates, hidden treasure, swashbuckling action treasure maps and mutiny on the high seas, meet the crew of the Hispaniola as they sail in search of lost plunder. But as the voyage progresses it quickly becomes clear that not all on board can be trusted as some of the crew are pirates... including the infamous Long John Silver. Suitable for families with children aged up to 10 years. Thurles Library presents All Hands Together VISUAl ARTS Wednesday Time: 10am to 5pm 10 to 30 May Daily Spike Quilters are a group of likeminded women aged between 15-90 years, who meet together monthly to do patchwork in The Muintir na Tire Hall, Littleton. Dedicated to their machines, needles, fabrics and those special pieces and patterns, all are willing to share the knowledge they have attained. Meetings are held in the hall from 10.30 am to 4pm. Each one works on their own piece. A show and tell is held at the start of the meeting. Views are exchanged, colours discussed and in that way they learn from one another. Guest teachers are engaged to facilitate workshops and bring everyone up to date. This exhibition showcases their work. Hunt for the Wilderpeople Wednesday 10 May FIlM Time: 8pm Price: €9/5 Dir. Taika Waititi, New Zealand, 2016, 100 min Raised on hip-hop and foster care, defiant city kid Ricky gets a fresh start in the New Zealand countryside. He finds home with his new foster family: the loving Aunt Bella, cantankerous Uncle Hec and dog Tupac. When a tragedy strikes that threatens to ship Ricky to another home, both he and Hec go on the run in the bush. As a national manhunt ensues, the newly branded outlaws must face their options: go out in a blaze of glory or overcome their differences and survive as a family. Parts road-movie, comedy and rousing adventure story, the charmingly offbeat Hunt for the Wilderpeople contains a, funny, but deeply affecting message. page 6
