03 December 2012

Draíocht is delighted to announce Liam Halligan as Theatre Artist in Residence 2011-2012.

The Arts Council and Fingal County Council are funding a one year Theatre Director in Residence programme in Draíocht for 2011-2012 and we are delighted that Liam Halligan will take up this position in November.

Liam would like to create a piece of theatre based on issues that come up during the acting workshops. Approximately 15 people from the various groups will be invited to work with Liam for a further 6 workshops during the month of June. These will take place in the evening time. Liam will write a final script over the summer.

The final group of 15 will come back in September 2012 to rehearse and perform the play in Draíocht's Studio Space in November 2012.
