    Cultural Convergence the Dublin Gate Theatre, 1928–1960

    Cultural Convergence The Dublin Gate Theatre, 1928–1960 Edited by Ondřej Pilný · Ruud van den Beuken · Ian R. Walsh Cultural Convergence “This well-organised volume makes a notable contribution to our understanding of Irish theatre studies and Irish modernist studies more broadly. The essays are written by a diverse range of leading scholars who outline the outstanding cultural importance of the Dublin Gate Theatre, both in terms of its national significance and in terms of its function as a hub of international engagement.” —Professor James Moran, University of Nottingham, UK “The consistently outstanding contributions to this illuminating and cohesive collection demonstrate that, for Gate Theatre founders Hilton Edwards and Micheál mac Liammóir and their collaborators, the limits of the imagination lay well beyond Ireland’s borders. Individually and collectively, the contribu- tors to this volume unravel the intricate connections, both personal and artistic, linking the theatre’s directors, designers, and practitioners to Britain, Europe, and beyond; they examine the development and staging of domestic plays written in either English or Irish; and they trace across national boundaries the complex textual and production history of foreign dramas performed in translation. In addition to examining a broad spectrum of intercultural and transnational influ- ences and perspectives, these frequently groundbreaking essays also reveal the extent to which the early Gate Theatre was a cosmopolitan, progressive, and inclusive space that recognized and valued women’s voices and queer forms of expression.” —Professor José Lanters, University of Wisconsin—Milwaukee, USA “Cultural Convergence is a book for which we have been waiting, not just in Irish theatre history, but in Irish cultural studies more widely.

Recognising the many methodologies that make up historical research, the series presents innovative and interdisciplinary work that is conceptual and interpretative, and expands and challenges the common understandings of the Irish past. It showcases new and exciting scholarship on subjects such as the history of gender, power, class, the body, landscape, memory and social and cultural change. It also reflects the diversity of Irish historical writing, since it includes titles that are empirically sophisticated together with conceptually driven synoptic studies. 1.

FLASHES OF MODERNITY: STAGE DESIGN AT THE ABBEY THEATRE, 1902-1966 A Doctoral Thesis Submitted to the O’Donoghue Centre for Drama, Theatre and Performance at National University of Ireland Galway By Christopher McCormack Supervised by Dr. Ian R. Walsh August 2018 2 ABSTRACT Responding to Guy Julier’s call for a “knowing practice” of design studies, this doctoral thesis reveals Ireland’s negotiation with modernity through stage design. I use historian T.J. Clark’s definition of modernity as “contingency,” which “turn[s] from the worship of ancestors and past authorities to the pursuit of a projected future”. Over the course of 60 years that saw the transformation of a pre-industrialised colony to a modernised republic, stage designs offered various possibilities of imagining Irish life. In the same period, the Abbey Theatre’s company shuttled itself from small community halls to the early 19th-century Mechanics’ Theatre, before moving to the commercial Queen’s Theatre, and finally arriving at the modern building that currently houses it. This thesis shines new light on that journey. By investigating the design references outside theatre, we can see how Abbey Theatre productions underlined new ways of envisioning life in Ireland.

    Arts in Schools, 2004 Directory of Arts Council-funded organisations with arts-in-schools programmes Cover photograph: Sinead Foley, artist facilitating a Mask-Making Workshop as part of Kilkenny Arts Festival 2003 programme for Young People. Photographer: Michael Brown © The Arts Council/An Chomhairle Ealaíon, 2004 ISBN 1-904291-08-2 Arts in Schools, 2004 For over 30 years, the Arts Council/an Chomhairle Ealaíon has supported the arts within formal education – both directly, through schemes and residencies and, indirectly, through funding the education and outreach programmes of arts organisations. New and revised curricula in primary and second-level schools have strengthened the place of the arts in education. As a result, an increasing number of arts organisations are becoming involved in education programmes. The Arts Council encourages and supports collaboration between arts organisations, artists and schools as a means of enriching young people’s artistic and aesthetic education. We also value the positive contribution this collaboration makes to the work of the artist and the teacher. To support and promote collaborations between artists, arts organisations and schools, the Arts Council published, last year, a directory of organisations running arts-in-schools programmes, Supporting Arts in Education. This addressed the information gap between the arts and education communities regarding the work in schools of arts organisations. The directory was popular with artists, educators and administrators, who use it as a practical resource in setting up new projects and relationships. To maintain the momentum and to keep the information up-to-date, we have again compiled this directory for 2004. Arts in Schools, 2004 lists an additional 40 arts organisations working in schools, reflecting both the increase in arts-in-schools activity and its changing nature.
