Process at Cork Theatre Collective

  • Theatre & Dance Beyond The Stage
← back to all events
  • Theatre

Cork Theatre Collective, in collaboration with Cork Midsummer Festival, throws open the doors to the next wave of theatre-makers.

Process exists to support Cork’s artist community; to experiment, gather, and connect with the festival artists who are here with us this summer, raw, bold, and unapologetically in-progress.

Process is where ideas take their first steps in front of an audience.

Fresh voices take centre stage through an Open Call welcoming artists who have never shown work at Cork Midsummer Festival – because every great show starts somewhere.

Step off the beaten path with site-specific works-in-progress, turning unexpected corners of Cork into stages.

Get in the room for Nightshift at the CTC Studio – an intimate, charged evening where theatre, dance, spoken word, music, and performance of every kind collides live, in the moment.

Wake up with Movement Mornings, hosted by dance/theatre artist Emily Terndrup – a chance to start your festival day by getting into your body, connecting with fellow artists, and shaking loose something new.

Festival Artists Workshops- hands-on sessions led by the festival’s own programmed artists, open to the wider Cork artist community.

Have your say at the Young Critics Forum and dive into the conversation with a Substack Takeover that brings critical voices to the front.

Full programme announced in early June at corktheatrecollective.com.
