In the lead-up to the show, more students became involved. Patrick Sheridan of TY operated the lighting board and projector, which was a very responsible role. Darragh Conneely became the assistant to the sound engineer, aided also by Mikey Rynne and Darragh Benis. Senior students also helped front of house. Before the show began several other TY students helped with the setting up of the hall, including Eoin Rouine, Tadgh Flynn and Mike Marrinan.

The society was delighted as always to have the involvement of the CBS students. Every year TY students join the show, often as part of their Gaisce Awards which they complete during the year. Community involvement is a very important aspect of the student’s self-development. The behaviour and conduct of the lads was impeccable; they were a wonderful reflection of the CBS.
