THE 67th Wicklow ICA Drama Festival took place over three days in Glenealy Village Hall, with Delgany Dramatic Society winning the Premier Award for Best Group.

Adjudicator Michael McCabe was left with a difficult task considering the high standard of one act plays and short plays and sketches on display for the duration of last weekend.

Delgany Dramatic Society were the big winners on the night, and as well as receiving the Premier Group Award, they also won Best Director for Peter Robbie and Best Actress Nicola Hogan in the One Act section.
