NIDA Grad Productions 2013
Five exciting productions showcase some of the nation's best and brightest.
Overview
NIDA's October season is here again. It's our opportunity to catch NIDA's graduating talents in action before they head off to win over Hollywood hearts. Five performances will showcase some of the nation's best and brightest in the fields of acting, costume, design, production and properties.
The season kicks off with Enda Walsh's dark journey through urban decay and self-destruction, Sucking Dublin. Then there's Jane Bodie's new play, Hinterland, about the discovery of an ancient civilisation of which only four members remain.
Meanwhile, ex-STC Associate Director Tom Wright will take on Shakespeare's romantic comedy Cymbeline and Imara Savage will direct an adaptation of Georg Buchner's Woyzeck, featuring music and lyrics by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan. Dennis Kelly's Osama the Hero, a provocative exploration of fear and dissent, is set to wrap up proceedings.
At the same time, NIDA's EXPO 2013 will display the year's finest theatrical creations, in the way of costumes, props, rendering, model boxes and audiovisual works, and Writers 2013 will introduce the next generation of playwrights.
