Splódar is the resident drama company in the Glens Centre, Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim. The company was established when the centre opened in 1995. Our principal objective is the production of high quailty drama in Irish and English. Under the name ‘The Glens Players’ (Aisteoirí na nGleannta) plays have been staged by writers such as Brian Friel, Frank McGuinness, Tom Murphy, Thornton Wilder, Vincent Woods, Cathal Ó Searcaigh and Garrison Keillor.
The company was given the name Splódar in 2007 to emphasize the Irish language policy of the group. Irish language productions to date include Damhsa ag Lughnasa, Sadhbh, Salóme and Leannáin (Buaiteoirí) as well as a re-working of Glantacháin Earraigh by Máirtín Ó Cadhain.
