Can you give more information on this photograph from Gort?

We are looking for your help with this photograph. It is taken at a concert finale at Gort. It features, left to right standing, Joe O'Leary, Mylo Mullins, Paddy Donoghue, Kieran Collins, Paddy Burke, Micko Carr, PJ Hayes, Jack Shaughnessy. Sitting, Kit O'Connor, Joe Burke and [     ] Moloney. We have it dated to 1955-1956, but if anyone can help us with the exact location, date and event we will add that to the catalogue description.

For more on the Joe Burke collection, which features correspondence from the Leitrim Ceili Band, photographs and music from a wide range of traditional musicians, visit http://archives.library.nuigalway.ie/joeburke/ .
