An Domhnach, an 24u L\u00fanasa, 2003.<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Ar ais ar\u00eds i gCardiff by the Sea, <\/strong>tar <\/strong>\u00e9is d\u00fainn seachtain, n\u00f3 mar sin, a chaitheamh ag f\u00e1na\u00edocht timpeall i measc na Misean Sp\u00e1inneach \u00fad, ar chuir m\u00e9 fh\u00e9in an oireadh sin suime iontu, \u00f3 ch\u00e9ad leag m\u00e9 cos ar Mhisean San Juan Capistrano, sa bhliain 1988. N\u00ed g\u00e1 a r\u00e1, go raibh \u00e1bhar machtnaimh bailithe agam, le linn na seachtaine sin, a choinneodh ag cogaint m\u00e9, go ceann scathaimh, ach go h\u00e1irithe, ach \u00f3 tharla gurbh \u00e9 an Domhnach a bh\u00ed ann, thugamar aghaidh ar Oceanside<\/strong> ar\u00eds le freastal ar Aifreann, i St. Margaret\u2019s Hall, sa chathair sin. N\u00ed call a r\u00e1, gur bhaineamar taitneamh as an gceili\u00faradh (celebration),<\/strong> agus as an seanm\u00f3ir freisin, agus tar \u00e9is d\u00fainn l\u00f3n taitneamhach a chaitheamh th\u00edos ag an gc\u00e9, thugamar aghaidh ar theach cairde linn, a bhfuil c\u00f3na\u00ed orthu in Oceanside, \u00f3 tharla go raibh cuireadh cuairte faighte againn uathu. Chaitheamar an tr\u00e1thn\u00f3na ansin ag caint is ag comhr\u00e1, sea, agus ag seanchas freisin. Caitheadh linn go fial, flaithi\u00fail, agus ar deireadh thiar, bh\u00ed s\u00e9 in am d\u00fainne bogadh, n\u00f3 bh\u00ed socraithe againn, dul chuig dr\u00e1ma a bh\u00ed \u00e1 l\u00e9iri\u00fa i gCoronado<\/strong>, th\u00edos i San Diego.<\/p>

To Coronado City.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Shroicheamar \u00e1r gceann scr\u00edbe (destination),<\/strong> amuigh ar oile\u00e1n Choronado, in am tr\u00e1th. Anois, b\u00edodh gur oile\u00e1n \u00e9 an Coronado seo, caithfear a admh\u00e1il, go bhfuil an t-oile\u00e1n c\u00e9anna seo lom l\u00e1n le tithe agus foirgint\u00ed taitnmeamhacha, taibhseacha, \u00e1ille, agus chuirfeadh s\u00e9 ionadh freisin ar an gcuairteoir, go n-\u00e1ir\u00edtear mar chathair \u00e9, b\u00edodh go bhfuil s\u00e9 suite anseo i gcuan agus i gcalafort (harbour<\/strong>) San Diego.<\/p>

\u201cTwelfth Night\u201d .<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Ach le filleadh ar an nDr\u00e1ma \u00fad. Ba \u00e9 an dr\u00e1ma a bh\u00ed le l\u00e9iri\u00fa acu an o\u00edche sin, sa Choronado Playhouse (An Amharaclann cois Cuain), n\u00f3 Twelfth Night<\/strong> (or What You Will) le William Shakespeare, sea, an fear ceannan c\u00e9anna sin, a bhfuil sean-aithne againn uilig air, sa taobh seo den domhan freisin.<\/p>

Tuige, a d\u00e9arfadh duine liom, b\u2019fh\u00e9idir, ar shocraigh sibh ar o\u00edche a chaitheamh ag sheandr\u00e1ma d\u00e1 leith\u00e9id, ar oile\u00e1n mara, amuigh ansin i gCuan San Diego?<\/p>

Bhuel, taobh amuigh den dr\u00e1ma sp\u00e9isi\u00fail, corraitheach fh\u00e9in, bh\u00ed rud eile d\u00e1r dtarraingt go Coronado, an o\u00edche ch\u00e9anna sin freisin, n\u00f3 tharla gurbh \u00e9 an Twelfth Night sin an dr\u00e1ma deiridh a l\u00e9ireofa\u00ed go br\u00e1ch sa tseanAmharclann sin Cois Cuain, agus cuir le sin, go mbeadh an dr\u00e1ma \u00e1 l\u00e9iri\u00fa amuigh faoin aer, ar ard\u00e1n a bh\u00ed chomh simpl\u00ed is a d\u2019fh\u00e9adfadh s\u00e9 a bheith, ach \u00e9 a bheith oiri\u00fanach don ghn\u00f3, ag an am gc\u00e9anna, n\u00f3 ba chuid den \u201c7th<\/sup> Annual Coronado Playhouse Outdoor Shakespeare Festival\u201d an l\u00e9iri\u00fa speisialta seo.<\/p>

Final Curtain.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Conas a tharla sin, an ea?<\/p>

Bhuel, ba \u00e9 an sc\u00e9al a chualamar n\u00f3 gur d\u00edoladh an talamh ar a raibh an Amhaarclann sin t\u00f3gtha, agus go rabhthas lena forbairt, gan aon r\u00f3-mhoill. D\u2019fh\u00e1g sin nach mbeadh \u00e1ras n\u00f3 d\u00edon d\u00e1 gcuid fh\u00e9in ag Comhlacht Aisteoir\u00ed an Playhouse, agus go mbeadh orthu \u00e1ras sealadach (temporary<\/strong>) a fh\u00e1il d\u00f3ibh fh\u00e9in, go dt\u00ed go mbeadh an tIonad Nua Pobail<\/strong> t\u00f3gtha, faoin mbliain 2005. Sea, agus d\u2019fheidhmigh an Coronado Playhouse c\u00e9anna sin mar Ionad Pobail, do phobal na Cathrach sin, le breis mhaith is leathch\u00e9ad bliain anuas. Iarradh orainn uilig \u00e1r nd\u00edcheall a dh\u00e9anamh, le haird an phobail a dh\u00edri\u00fa ar fhadhb, agus ar ch\u00e1s, na nAisteoir\u00ed. <\/p>

Ach le filleadh ar an Se\u00f3 fh\u00e9in, caithfidh m\u00e9 a admh\u00e1il, gur bhaineamar an-taitneamh go deo as. Bh\u00ed an aisteoireacht thar barr, agus nuair a smaoin\u00edonn t\u00fa, gur deineadh an dr\u00e1ma sin a l\u00e9iri\u00fa, a fheisti\u00fa, agus chur ar an ard\u00e1n, an o\u00edche \u00e1irithe sin, saor in aisce, le deis a thabhairt don Chomhlacht roinnt \u00e1irithe airgid a bhaili\u00fa d\u00e1 n-iarrachta\u00ed, sa todhcha\u00ed. Caithfidh m\u00e9 a admh\u00e1il gur mh\u00f3ide \u00e1r meas uilig orthu, an beart c\u00e9anna sin a bheith d\u00e9anta acu. <\/p>

No Free Lunches !<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Smaoinigh freisin, gur ligeadh an lucht f\u00e9achana isteach chuig an Amharclann, an o\u00edche sin, saor in aisce (for nothing<\/strong>), agus tuigfidh t\u00fa ansin, go mba fhlaithi\u00fala go m\u00f3r fada iad, mar lucht f\u00e9achana, nuair a iarradh orthu s\u00ednti\u00fas deonach airgid a bhronnadh ar an gComhlacht Aisteoir\u00ed sin, a chleachtaigh a gceird, thar na blianta, sa Phlayhouse \u00fad Cois Cuain. <\/p>

Chuir su\u00edomh na hAmharclainne go m\u00f3r le hinchreidtheacht (credibility<\/strong>) an sc\u00e9il, tharla go raibh s\u00e9 suite ansin cois cuain, agus boladh agus fuaimeanna na mara \u00e1 s\u00e9ideadh isteach orainn, saor in aisce, freisin, sea, agus b\u00e1id agus longa farraige ag seoladh leo isteach is amach faoi Dhroichead \u00e1lainn, dea-dheartha, cuarach (curved<\/strong>), Choronado. <\/p>

N\u00ed call dom a r\u00e1, gur bhain an lucht \u00e9isteachta uilig ard-taitneamh as an l\u00e9iri\u00fa sin, n\u00f3 b\u2019\u00f3c\u00e1id speisialta, stairi\u00fail \u00ed, agus tuigeadh sin do chuile dhuine den lucht \u00e9isteachta, agus do lucht an ard\u00e1in fh\u00e9in, freisin.<\/p>

Good to be there .<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Sea, bh\u00ed \u00e1thas orainn uilig, gur tugadh an deis d\u00fainn, bheith ar an bhf\u00f3d don \u00f3c\u00e1id stairi\u00fail sin, agus i ndiaidh an dr\u00e1ma, bhuaileamar an b\u00f3thar abhaile, go Cardiff by the Sea. <\/strong>Amach linn i dtosach thar dhroichead \u00e1lainn, cuarach, sin Choronado, agus ansin tr\u00ed roinnt \u00e1irithe de chathair San Diego, agus ansin, abhaile linn ar na Saorbheala\u00ed a chuir ar \u00e1r gcumas an baile a bhaint amach, gan mhoill, gan str\u00f3, gan tranglam tr\u00e1chta (traffic jam<\/strong>) n\u00f3 tada d\u00e1 leith\u00e9id.<\/p>

Sea, gan dabht ar domhan, ba l\u00e1 d\u00e1r saol \u00e9.<\/p>
