Amazing OPPURTUNITYclub

THISISPOPBABY- who are an amazing company run by Phillip McMahon and Jenny Jennings along with THEATREclub fave Lynnette Moran are having a festival in Project Arts Centre soon.

THISISPOPBABY are the people behind WERK at the Abbey Theatre and they run a tent at Electric Picnic so they've generally being putting their blood sweat and tears into making dublin a better place to live for the last few years.

The Festival is called QUEER NOTIONS and last year when it was on THEATREclub had an amazing week going to see all the shows and having our eyes opened and our lives changed.

They are looking for volunteers and to be honest we have benefitted hugely and learnt LOADS from just being near thisispopbaby and we think you should seize this chance to be near them with both hands.
