The line-up in the All-Irelands has been decided with Rush Dramatic Society enjoying the roll of the dice when they pulled the final spot ahead of the unlucky Camross Drama Group. And so, from a geographical and county perspective the final make-up is Antrim, Clare, Dublin, Leitrim, Waterford, Wexford and Wicklow all having one representative while Cork and Kildare have two each and with at least one representative from each of the four provinces - a truly true All-Ireland.
