Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Rainbow "Ballroom of Romance", Glenfarne. The dance-hall was built by the late John McGivern in early 1934 and was known then as McGivern's Dance Hall.

I am reliably informed that the passing writer who wrote the book "The Ballroom of Romance" was called William Trevor Cox, (now living in Crediton) but is not English. He was born in Mitchelstown in the south of Ireland but his chosen nom-de-plume is William Trevor. More at http://www.breifne.ie/content.asp?LEVEL1=2&LEVEL2=6&ID=1969

A BBC producer, having read William Trevor Cox's book, decided to make a film based on it. And so the film of the same name was screened worldwide.

During the 7 weeks of lent there were no dances held in the Rainbow or any other hall in the diocese of Kilmore (except on St Patrick's night). This was a ruling by the Clergy of the diocese. During those weeks of no dancing John would organise concerts and other types of entertainment. - see later images 1089868
