Due to the phenomenal success of last years joint fundraiser, we are delighted to announce our next family quiz night at the Auld House, Moneyreagh on Friday 27th June 2014.  

As always, the Ravara quiz nights aren't like your average quiz night! This year we will be presenting ' A Norn Iron Quiz Night' suitable for the whole family!
Come along and test your local knowledge and find out, do you really know it all about Norn Iron?

It has become tradition to hold a joint fundraiser, raising money for our summer productions and a local charity. This year, half of the money raised will be going to 'Autism NI'. 

"Autism NI is a parent led partnership organisation having been formed to promote positive collaboration between parents, professionals and individuals with Autism to address the need for appropriate services.  This partnership ethos extends to the charities promotion of a multi disciplinary, cross agency response to issues such as assessment, diagnosis and early intervention.  The charity's mission to support parents and individuals with an Autistic Spectrum Disorder is core to its work and is based on individualized assessed need.  The charity is committed to promoting best practice, accessible to all irrespective of family circumstances."

We can guarantee you an evening of great craic and some live music from some of our very own local Ravara talent! If previous quiz nights are anything to go by, this will be extremely popular so we recommend that you book your tickets online asap at www.ticketsource.co.uk/ravara or get in touch with us!

We very much look forward to welcoming you along on the 27th, please invite family and friends to help us raise lots of money for two great causes!

Thursday April, 24th saw the Dock Café, Titanic Quarter fill to the brim, bringing many of us Ravaraians, both new and old together. The evening was our Easter fundraiser evening, raising a fantastic £300 for our forthcoming summer productions. 

With displays, coffee flowing, gorgeous sun set views over Belfast Titanic Quarter, singing and chillaxing, everyone had a very enjoyable evening! 
We would like to thank everyone who helped make this evening happen, and to everyone who attended, helping us raise much needed cash and uniting our brilliant organisation. 

We were delighted to be asked back for our second year with Titanic Belfast as part of their 'A Night to Remember' commemoration evening. Three actors, as requested, were provided for this evening promenade theatre around the galleries of Titanic Belfast marking the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. 

The evening went extremely well, it is always a delight to perform in such a world class venue and work with such a great team at Titanic Belfast!

Titanic Belfast describe their event...
Join us on this commemorative evening as we take you on a journey of reflection.

During this experience, you will be taken on a journey which tracks the history of Titanic from her conception right through to her subsequent place in history. 
Stop a while and listen to the first-hand accounts of those who bore witness to events of April 14th. Listen as they describe to you their personal accounts of what really happened as the great liner met her fate. 
After your journey, relax and reflect in the warmth of the atrium and enjoy the music as others make their way back from their journey. 
Should guests choose to remain at Titanic Belfast, they will be invited to mark the moment when the ship struck the iceberg, and join us in prayer and candle lighting ceremony as a mark of respect for those who perished.

To book this experience please contact our offices on 028 9076 6386 or visit our website.
