From Page to Stage at GSA ✏️☀️

This summer, step into the world of performance with a course that takes you from first ideas to fully realised scenes.

Build confidence, unlock your voice and movement, and develop the skills to create, analyse and perform with clarity and imagination.

From improvisation and storytelling to script work and rehearsal, this is a practical, hands-on journey that ends with you on your feet, sharing your work with an audience.

A big welcome to our ITSP students ✨🎉

The Irish Theatre Summer Program at the Gaiety School of Acting is designed for acting students from outside Ireland.

On this course, participants partake in a number of practical acting workshops and seminars carefully designed to place the writers in both a theatrical, literary and cultural context.

Over the four weeks, students develop an understanding of the historical and literary background of selected texts from each writer, in addition to studying the staging and dramaturgical aspects.
Students will be cast in scenes that feature on the curriculum and on the final day the participants will perform a showcase of selected scenes from the various plays studied.

We had such a wonderful time today meeting all the new students and we cannot wait to work with you over the coming weeks 🙌🏼💚
