All of us here at Castaway Actors Agency are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our friend and former Castaway client, Seán Rocks.

A passionate and talented artist, Seán’s contributions to Ireland’s cultural life cannot be overstated. Whether it be on air as the presenter of Arena on RTÉ, or throughout his celebrated career as a stage and screen actor, Seán was a champion of the arts whose kindness, generosity, and graciousness will be greatly missed.

We send our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues at this difficult time. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

Break legs to our very own David Ryan and Helen McGrath - who will be performing as part of a rehearsed reading for the new play I'M NOT IN LOVE by Paul Nugent this Friday at the Civic Theatre. 🔥

In this rock ‘n roll romantic comedy, record label boss Leo has invited his two favourite bands – female punks The Vipers and male rockers Retrograde Step – to his island home, in the hopes at least one of them will record a hit song. The only problem: their lead singers Trish and Benjy hate each other. Plus superstar S.H.E. has just had a nasty break-up, new recruit Audio is out of his depth, dependable Ursula wants to be off the clock and there’s trouble between the Danaher brothers … how will Leo and his trusty roadie Pup cope?
