Pride in Kilkenny 2021: Scriptwriting & Theatre Masterclasses (16 - 25 yrs)
Event Information
About this event
In 2020 Butler Gallery moved to its new location at Evans’ Home on John’s Quay, Kilkenny. This momentous occasion has afforded the gallery the chance to reach out beyond its walls to invite and welcome a vast array of communities and audiences to take part in a new chapter of life for the gallery. June is Pride month and to mark this special occasion the gallery is teaming up with Kilkennny Leader Partnership to programme a series of events and activities which will be just the start of a prolonged process of mutual cultural and artistic engagement with LGBTQ communities across Kilkenny and further afield.
Have you an idea for a play or performance piece that you just can’t pin down or bring some structure to? Or perhaps you have some fully formed ideas and are not sure what to do next? Where does an idea come from? How does it develop from page to stage? Join our masterclasses with playwright Brian Merriman, founder and director of the International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival and get some tips and advice from a leading figure in Irish theatre, direction and performance. Let's get the creativity flowing and let's write a play together!
