  • The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979
    Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections Northwestern University Libraries Dublin Gate Theatre Archive The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979 History: The Dublin Gate Theatre was founded by Hilton Edwards (1903-1982) and Micheál MacLiammóir (1899-1978), two Englishmen who had met touring in Ireland with Anew McMaster's acting company. Edwards was a singer and established Shakespearian actor, and MacLiammóir, actually born Alfred Michael Willmore, had been a noted child actor, then a graphic artist, student of Gaelic, and enthusiast of Celtic culture. Taking their company’s name from Peter Godfrey’s Gate Theatre Studio in London, the young actors' goal was to produce and re-interpret world drama in Dublin, classic and contemporary, providing a new kind of theatre in addition to the established Abbey and its purely Irish plays. Beginning in 1928 in the Peacock Theatre for two seasons, and then in the theatre of the eighteenth century Rotunda Buildings, the two founders, with Edwards as actor, producer and lighting expert, and MacLiammóir as star, costume and scenery designer, along with their supporting board of directors, gave Dublin, and other cities when touring, a long and eclectic list of plays. The Dublin Gate Theatre produced, with their imaginative and innovative style, over 400 different works from Sophocles, Shakespeare, Congreve, Chekhov, Ibsen, O’Neill, Wilde, Shaw, Yeats and many others. They also introduced plays from younger Irish playwrights such as Denis Johnston, Mary Manning, Maura Laverty, Brian Friel, Fr. Desmond Forristal and Micheál MacLiammóir himself. Until his death early in 1978, the year of the Gate’s 50th Anniversary, MacLiammóir wrote, as well as acted and designed for the Gate, plays, revues and three one-man shows, and translated and adapted those of other authors.

Gently lunging melodies combine to produce a bustling tapestry of sound. Turn literally turns over its phrases, varying upon each repetition. Once I decided to dedicate this piece to my mother, an inveterate knitter, it struck me: that’s exactly what a turn is in knitting, a reworking on top of an already established stitched pattern! On a larger level Turn pushes towards build-ups that end each time with a literal turn in direction. This in a major way constitutes the modus operandi of the piece.

  • A Word from the Societies Officer
    A Word from the Societies Officer It has been an extraordinary year for societies in NUI Galway, a year which reinforces the view that the societies are at the very heart of the cultural and social life of the campus. With over 7000 students signing on to societies during both societies days this year, their can be no doubt about their continuing popularity. With a turn-over of over €600,000 this year their range and level of activity can not be in question. When you consider that over €150,000 of this was donated to charity the generosity and altruism of the society individuals is a shining example to all of us. It has been a pleasure facilitating and supporting the societies in their unbelievably diverse range of activities. This year our aim was to improve societies’ infrastructures and facilities, to this end workshops for the various committee members were organised. The success of the societies organisational, record keeping and book keeping skills is clearly evident in this publication. In the following pages you will uncover, in the societies own words, the fascinating and diverse range of activities they engaged in and also the immense sense of pride and joy they have in their achievements. The purpose of this book is not only to celebrate the year that the societies have had and to keep a record for future years but also to acknowledge the hard work, imagination, determination and creativity of the dedicated committee members. Congratulations to all of you. This year saw a number of reunions. It was obvious from the alumni that the years spent in societies, while in university, enriched their experiences and forged life long friendships.
