LIAM NEESON ENDORSES AN EXTRAORDINARY CAMPAIGN
I am particularly excited about this project. For the school to re-build a theatre on the site of the original 1662 Smock Alley is inspirational. For it to be a resource for the theatre community as a whole is an added bonus. It is an ambitious project and one which I am delighted to support. Let the new Smock Alley Theatre of the 21st Century be a true reflection of Dublin's original Smock Alley, a resource for the City of Dublin, for Ireland and the world.
Thank you,
Liam Neeson, Patron, The Gaiety School of Acting
