Ó Chleamairí go Ceamaraí Drámaíocht agus Taibhealaíona na Gaeilge faoi chaibidil
This brand-new collection about drama and the performing arts will provide researchers, students, practitioners and the arts community with information on various aspects of the story of drama.
Scholarly essays address different subjects, from dramas and debates in the time of the Irish-language revival to contemporary issues.
We get a new insight into troupes and art practices in certain essays, and various aspects of poetry and performance poetry are also examined.
In addition, some of the main practitioners of Irish-language drama are interviewed and we get an account in their own words, as performers, of the artistic choices involved in certain projects and also the direction of drama at the moment.
This is the second book in the ‘Scholarly Essays’ series by the imprint Cló Léann na Gaeilge.
