Come and join Dirty Protest & Fishamble for a day exploring creative collaboration between Wales and Ireland.

Experience the first public sharing of three new short plays, created collaboratively online between Welsh & Irish writers, read by Welsh and Irish actors. Then learn more about the challenges and joys of collaborating online in a Q+A with the writers.

The writers are:

  • Connor Allen & Ciara Elizabeth Smyth
  • Samantha O'Rourke & Michael Patrick and Oisín Kearney
  • Hefin Robinson & Shannon Yee

Hear about the international opportunities available for Welsh and Irish artists in 2021 and beyond from a range or cultural organisations, including British Council Ireland and Wales. An open discussion will also be held on the cultural, political and philosophical links between Wales and Ireland that might support and underpin future collaboration.

We hope you can join!

The event will be live captioned and BSL interpreted. There will be a Welsh to English translator in the room and we actively encourage contributions in Welsh. Please let the organisers know, either by emailing info@dirtyprotesttheatre.co.uk or when prompted at the booking stage on Eventbrite, if you have any additional access needs.
