Picture the Audience Naked - A student sharing of work in progress

28 Nov 2023

Work from MA, HDip and BA students in the Department of Theatre. 

Picture the Audience Naked is a work-in-progress sharing of new solo pieces by MA, HDip and BA students from the Department of Theatre in UCC. These pieces have emerged from weekly workshops based around Autoethnography and Performance, facilitated by Bernadette Cronin, Yvon Bonenfant and Fionn Woodhouse. Autoethnography involves drawing on the archive of the performer’s personal experience to create performance work.

18 performers will present their solo pieces over the course of 2 evenings, 9 pieces per show.  This is the very first public sharing of these works -in-progress from emerging theatre practitioners. We hope you enjoy! 

The sharing run over two nights and starts at 7pm - Wednesday 6th and Thurs 7th Dec - with different work presented each night.

Modules presenting work include Final Year Special Studies in Theatre Practice and MA Advanced Theatre Practice. The sharing is supported by Second Year Performance Technologies: Explorations. 

Tickets are free but must be booked via Eventbrite - Book here

Trigger Warning: 

A wide range of themes are explored across both nights - themes and content include but are not limited to sexual & physical violance, child abuse, death, illness, loud noises, etc. Further details will be provided nearer to show time.
