Pat Kenny

This is about the bed in the shed in the back garden.

And if you do it too quickly before the rules are out, you might get takedown notices.

Jack Morgan-Jones, thank you very much for joining us and running us through this morning's papers.

The Pat Kenny Show, Saturday and Sunday from 10am on Newstalk.

Conversation that counts.

The Pat Kenny Show on Newstalk.

Now, if you remember the Huckle book, you'll probably love the show that's coming to the Gaiety Theatre in Dublin, starring my next guest.

And if you don't remember the Huckle book, then now is your chance to learn all about Ireland's show band era.

Carol Gleeson is one of the women behind the show.

It's called Are You Dancing?

And one of its stars is...

is Carol, but alongside her is retired school principal and award-winning amateur actor Paul Meskell.

And, as I say, hearts are trembling all over the country, not realising it's Meskell Pair rather than Meskell Peace.

Now, before we talk to you about your career, which is not, this is not a debut.

You've been on the boards before.

I want to talk to Carol about the show itself and how it came about.

I'm not trying to be complimentary or flattering, but you don't look like you live through the show band era yourself.

But what inspired you to write the play?

I mean, what was the seed that told you this deserved some exposure?

With 30 performers, you know, the most profitable show is a one man show, you know.
