The Department of Theatre (School of Film, Music & Theatre) is delighted to announce 

Half Moon Festival

A once-off multi-disciplinary arts festival programmed by the inaugural cohort of the MA in Arts Management & Creative Producing as part of their end of year practical work.

Friday 26th to Sunday 28th June 2020.

For sneak previews of the festival you can listen back to events featured on Evelyn Grant’s Weekend Drivetime (Lyric FM) last weekend (see http://rte.ie/r.html?rii=16_11206916_21613_20-06-2020) or read more about Half Moon Festival on UCC Express (see https://uccexpress.ie/announcing-half-moon-festival-online-from-cork/).

Half Moon Festival aims to showcase new artistic partnerships, collaborations and events that cross artforms as well as revisiting collaborations and innovations that have forged new creative beginnings and connections between communities in the past. Through its eclectic programme, the festival aims to celebrate difference and different perspectives, to share experiences of art and creativity, to celebrate the fun and joyous moments that art offers, and to provide an antidote to the detached living of the present day.

The students are delighted to support the work of their artists during this time when the artistic community is grappling with the fall-out of the pandemic, and they are very excited to present this programme of work as their producing debut. They invite audiences everywhere to connect with them and with each other at this crucial moment when physical interaction does not define our sense of connection to community in as much as our commitment to keeping the energy of exchange alive.
