  • On the Study and Promotion of Drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes
    Editorial: On the study and promotion of drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes (University of Glasgow) and Michelle Macleod (University of Aberdeen), Guest-Editors We are very grateful to the editors of the International Journal of Scottish Theatre and Screen for allowing us the opportunity to guest-edit a special volume about Gaelic drama. The invitation came after we had organised two panels on Gaelic drama at the biennial Gaelic studies conference, Rannsachadh na Gàidhlig, at the University Edinburgh 2014. We asked the contributors to those two panels to consider developing their papers and submit them to peer review for this special edition: each paper was read by both a Gaelic scholar and a theatre scholar and we are grateful to them for their insight and contributions. Together the six scholarly essays and one forum interview in this issue are the single biggest published work on Gaelic drama to date and go some way to highlighting the importance of this genre within Gaelic society. In 2007 Michelle Macleod and Moray Watson noted that ‘few studies of modern Gaelic drama’ (Macleod and Watson 2007: 280) exist (prior to that its sum total was an unpublished MSc dissertation by Antoinette Butler in 1994 and occasional reviews): Macleod continued to make the case in her axiomatically entitled work ‘Gaelic Drama: The Forgotten Genre in Gaelic Literary Studies’. (Dymock and McLeod 2011) More recently scholarship on Gaelic drama has begun to emerge and show, despite the fact that it had hitherto been largely neglected in academic criticism, that there is much to be gained from in-depth study of the genre.

  • A Doll's House
    The National Theatre of Scotland and Royal Lyceum Theatre present SCOTTISH PREMIERE A Doll’s House By Henrik Ibsen, in a version by Zinnie Harris Directed by Graham McLaren Set Design by Robert Innes Hopkins, Lighting Design by Tim Mitchell, Sound Design by Nick Sagar Cast includes: Robert Cavanah, Brian McCardie, Lucianne McEvoy, Kevin McMonagle, Amy Manson, Sharon Young At the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh from 16 April to 4 May 2013 Press Performance: Wednesday 17 April at 7.45pm Following the success of the critically acclaimed production The Guid Sisters in 2012, the National Theatre of Scotland is delighted to be working in partnership again with the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh to bring this new version of Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House to the Scottish stage for the first time. A stellar cast of Scottish performers has been assembled, with the lead role of Nora being played by Amy Manson. This will mark Amy’s return to the Lyceum, where she won Best Performance (Female) in 2008 for her role in Six Characters in Search of an Author at the Critics' Awards for Theatre in Scotland. Since then she has gone on to enjoy success in British film and television. A Doll’s House caused outrage both in its style and content when first staged in 1879. Zinnie Harris has transposed her version from late 19th-century Norway to Edwardian London and shifted the tale of intrigue, fraud and betrayal from the world of finance to that of politics. Her version has strong contemporary resonances, revealing a world where duty, power and hypocrisy rule, and brings modern sensibilities to bear on Nora’s marriage, at the heart of the play.

  • 2015 Is One of the Only Juried Performing Arts Platforms Presenting Fully-Produced Pieces Created for Youth in North America
    PHILADELPHIA, PA JANUARY 21-25 1 . lst E R E D N A V T UR K BY O T O H HETPALEIS. P 2 WELCOME! On behalf of the IPAY staff we are happy to welcome you to Philadelphia for the 37th annual Showcase. Philadelphia has long been known as a place for meeting and exchange—not to mention revolution! It seems fitting that we gather here again, in one of the leading cultural cities in the United States and IPAY’s home base, to stir the artistic fires, develop professional cultural exchange networks, and share extraordi- nary performing arts experiences with new and old friends. IPAY Showcase 2015 is one of the only juried performing arts platforms presenting fully-produced pieces created for youth in North America. In addition to attracting dynamic and diverse artistic companies from North America, we continue to be enriched by the growing reach of our global platform in welcoming new and returning artists, producers, presenters, and cultural liaisons from Mexico, Australia, Belgium, Sweden, Holland, the United Kingdom, and beyond. Whether this is your first Showcase or you are a seasoned attendee; whether you are an artist, producer, presenter, agent, student, or all of the above; we welcome you and invite you to take advantage of all that this opportunity has to offer you, as well as to contribute what you can to make it a success. We hope that you find what it is that has brought you to Showcase and that your presence here helps to fulfill another community member’s purpose for being here.
