For two nights only, Ballina Arts Centre will host John Breen’s contemporary Irish classic rugby play Alone It Stands on Tuesday, October 29th and Wednesday, October 30, at 8pm.

Alone It Stands, an Irish play based on the legendary victory over the touring All Blacks rugby union team of 1978, by the Mighty Men from Munster, will be featuring an accomplished performer from Athlone in the cast: Eleanor Tiernan.

IT IS one of the legendary days in Irish rugby. In Thomond Park, Limerick, on Tuesday October 31 1978, Munster took on one of the greatest New Zealand sides of all time - and beat them, 12 - 0. Afterwards All Blacks wing Stu Wilson said : “We were lucky to get nil.”
