The research in this Findings Report focusses on the gender breakdown of Playwrights, Directors, Designers and Casts of the 737 new plays produced between 2006 and 2015. For a full description of the research parameters for this report, please see pg. 20. The highlights for each artistic category are as follows: Playwrights • 33% of single-authored new plays produced between 2006-2015 were written by female playwrights. • 9% of new plays are co-authored; 46% of the playwrights of co-authored plays are female. • Over the ten-year period, there has been little change in the proportion of new plays by female playwrights produced, averaging at 29% for the period from 2006-2010 and 31% for the period from 2011-2015. • There was on average 1 new musical produced per year, 4 new plays for young audiences produced per year and 12 new adaptations produced per year; 77% of new plays produced were original plays. ©2017, 2019 Irish Theatre Institute While Irish Theatre Institute has taken every care in collating information for these statistics, it does not assume and hereby disclaims any liability to any party for loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in this document. 2 Directors • 39% of new plays staged by a single director and premiered between 2006-2015 were directed by female directors. • 3% of new plays are co-directed; 42% of the directors of co-directed plays are female. • While in 2015, there were equal numbers of new plays directed by solo female and male directors; on average, there was a slight decrease (1%) in the numbers of new plays directed by solo female directors in the second half (2011-2015, 38%) of the 10-year period studied when compared to the first (2006-2010, 39%). Designers • The statistics on designers show that the disciplines of Costume and Sound remain gendered for female and male designers respectively, while female designers are also underrepresented for both Lighting and Set Design. • Although 82% of Costume Designers are female, only 474 or 64% of the total 737 new plays studied had a Costume Designer credited; with Lighting Designers credited on 82% of new plays, Set Designers on 77% of new plays and Sound Designers on 70% of new plays. Casts • The average cast size of new Irish plays is 5 – this is made up of 2 female (41%) and 3 male (59%) actors. • Although the average cast size of new plays dipped to 3 in 2013 and 4 in 2014, the ratio of female:male actors remains the same throughout the period. ©2017, 2019 Irish Theatre Institute While Irish Theatre Institute has taken every care in collating information for these statistics, it does not assume and hereby disclaims any liability to any party for loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in this document. 3 Playwrights Findings Report of the Irish Playography: Gender Breakdown, New Play Repertoire 2006 - 2015 ©2017, 2019 Irish Theatre Institute While Irish Theatre Institute has taken every care in collating information for these statistics, it does not assume and hereby disclaims any liability to any party for loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in this document. 4 TOTAL NEW PLAYS* 2006-2015 = 737 BY AUTHOR TYPE CO-AUTHORED MIXED All Male 20 30% Female Mixed 48% Co-Authored Single-Authored 30 67 Male 670 45% 9% 52% 91% All Female 17 25% Female Male All Female All Male Mixed Single-Authored Co-Authored *includes original plays, new adaptations, theatre for young audiences, physical/devised theatre and musical theatre ©2017, 2019 Irish Theatre Institute While Irish Theatre Institute has taken every care in collating information for these statistics, it does not assume and hereby disclaims any liability to any party for loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in this document. 5 TOTAL NEW PLAYS* 2006-2015 = 737 TOTAL SINGLE-AUTHORED PLAYS = 670 PLAYWRIGHTS FEMALE/MALE Female 223 33% Female Male Male 447 67% *includes original plays, new adaptations, theatre for young audiences, physical/devised theatre and musical theatre ©2017, 2019 Irish Theatre Institute While Irish Theatre Institute has taken every care in collating information for these statistics, it does not assume and hereby disclaims any liability to any party for loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in this document. 6 TOTAL NEW PLAYS* 2006-2015 = 737 PLAYWRIGHTS FEMALE/MALE/CO-AUTHORED BY YEAR 100 8 90 80 8 8 AUTHORED - 5 70 4 8 6 7 7 60 58 47 50 6 42 50 53 43 35 40 45 42 30 32 20 31 29 26 24 10 22 22 20 17 18 14 NO.

  • What Ever Happened to In-Yer-Face Theatre?
    What Ever Happened to in-yer-face theatre? Aleks SIERZ (Theatre Critic and Visiting Research Fellow, Rose Bruford College) “I have one ambition – to write a book that will hold good for ten years afterwards.” Cyril Connolly, Enemies of Promise • Tuesday, 23 February 1999; Brixton, south London; morning. A Victorian terraced house in a road with no trees. Inside, a cloud of acrid dust rises from the ground floor. Two workmen are demolishing the wall that separates the dining room from the living room. They sweat; they curse; they sing; they laugh. The floor is covered in plaster, wooden slats, torn paper and lots of dust. Dust hangs in the air. Upstairs, Aleks is hiding from the disruption. He is sitting at his desk. His partner Lia is on a train, travelling across the city to deliver a lecture at the University of East London. Suddenly, the phone rings. It’s her. And she tells him that Sarah Kane is dead. She’s just seen the playwright’s photograph in the newspaper and read the story, straining to see over someone’s shoulder. Aleks immediately runs out, buys a newspaper, then phones playwright Mark Ravenhill, a friend of Kane’s. He gets in touch with Mel Kenyon, her agent. Yes, it’s true: Kane, who suffered from depression for much of her life, has committed suicide. She is just twenty-eight years old. Her celebrity status, her central role in the history of contemporary British theatre, is attested by the obituaries published by all the major newspapers. Aleks returns to his desk.

In the course of the evening, James Liddy’s autobiography, The Doctor’s House (Salmon Press, 2004), fresh off the plane from Ireland, was launched, read from, toasted, sold, and sanctioned by the presence of emeritus archbishop Rembert Weakland, who had joined us for the occasion. Friday was a full day, with an exciting academic program of eight panels of four speakers each, on topics ranging from literature and history to music, art and politics. Professor Seamus Caulfield’s Frank Gleeson, Tom Kilroy, James Liddy, plenary lecture, “Neolithic Rocks to Riverdance,” accompanied by Jose Lanters, Josephine Craven, Joe slides and presented with verve and humor, gave his enthusiastic Dowling and Eamonn O’Neill audience an insight into the many and varied aspects of the archaeological excavations at Céide Fields in Co.

All We Say is ‘Life is Crazy’: – Central and Eastern Europe and the Irish Stage Patrick Lonergan If you had visited the Abbey Theatre during 2007, you might have seen a card displayed prominently in its foyer. ‘Join Us,’ it says, its purpose being to convince visitors to become Members of the Abbey – to donate money to the theatre and, in return, to get free tickets for productions, to have their names listed in show programmes, and to gain access to special events. The choice of image to attract potential donors is easy to understand (Figure 1). The woman, we see, has reached into a chandelier to retrieve a letter, and we can tell from her expression that the discovery she’s made has both surprised and delighted her. Why is she so happy? What does the letter say? And who is that strange man, barely visible, holding her up at such an unusual angle? As well as being eye-catching, the image is also an interesting analogue for the experience of watching great drama.

Provoking Performance: Challenging the People, the State and the Patriarchy in 1980s Irish Theatre Candidate: Patricia O’Beirne Supervisor: Dr. Ian Walsh School: School of Humanities Discipline: Drama and Theatre Studies Institution: National University of Ireland, Galway Submission Date: August 2018 Summary of Contents: Provoking Performance: Challenging the People, the State and the Patriarchy in 1980s Irish Theatre This thesis offers new perspectives and knowledge to the discipline of Irish theatre studies and historiography and addresses an overlooked period of Irish theatre. It aims to investigate playwriting and theatre-making in the Republic of Ireland during the 1980s. Theatre’s response to failures of the Irish state, to the civil war in Northern Ireland, and to feminist and working-class concerns are explored in this thesis; it is as much an exploration of the 1980s as it is of plays and playwrights during the decade. As identified by a literature review, scholarly and critical attention during the 1980s was drawn towards Northern Ireland where playwrights were engaging directly with the conflict in Northern Ireland. This means that proportionally the work of many playwrights in the Republic remains unexamined and unpublished.
