Theatre Practice & Production (MA) Expand all Course Overview This full-time MA programme aims to prepare students for professional-level work in the theatre and/or other creative industries—or to deepen the knowledge of people who are already working in those fields. Students take modules in many different aspects of theatre practice, including ensemble performance, direction, acting, and so on. An optional internship with an Irish theatre company forms part of the course. During hte summer months, students complete a practice-based project, involving the staging of their own plays and/or performances, which they write about in the form of a final dissertation. The course is suited to anyone with an interest in Drama and Theatre, especially theatre practitioners who wish to gain a formal qualification for their work, and amateur/student performers who wish to enhance and develop their skills. Candidates who do not hold a primary degree may apply on the basis of relevant experience. Central to the programme is the work of the Druid Academy. It allows students to benefit from NUI Galway’s partnership with Druid Theatre—recently described by the New York Times as “one of the world’s great theatre companies”. Students work directly with the Druid Director-in-Residence and participate in master classes and workshops with members of the company, including artistic director Garry Hynes, the first woman to win a Tony Award for directing. There are some scholarship opportunities available for this programme. Please visit the MA (Humanities) Scholarships website for more information.

I mo shaol gairmiúil mar iriseoir is gá scagadh agus póirseáil a dhéanamh ar eolas. Go minic, is gá an t-eolas atá ar leas an phobail a aithint, a scaradh ó eolas eile agus a chur in iúl don ghnáthdhuine ar shlí atá sothuigthe. Tairbhe as cuimse a bhí san MA sa Nua-Ghaeilge chun mo chuid scileanna teanga agus anailíse a fhorbairt. Ba luachmhar an taithí chomh maith gur leagadh béim ar scileanna cur i láthair mar chuid den Mháistreacht. Ailbhe Nic Giolla Chomhaill | Mac Léinn PhD Thug mise faoin MA sa Nua-Ghaeilge sa bhliain 2012. Bhí mé díreach tar éis BA a bhaint amach agus ní raibh mé iomlán cinnte cén treo ina rachainn ó thaobh gairm bheatha de. Thug an MA deis dom modúil a roghnú a bhí an-éagsúil óna chéile ach a chuir ar mo chumas scileanna anailíse luachmhara a fhorbairt agus tuiscint den scoth a fháil ar litríocht agus ar chultúr na Gaeilge. Spreag an cúrsa seo dúil mhór sa taighde ionam agus shocraigh mé leanúint den taighde agus tabhairt faoi dhochtúireacht in Ollscoil na hÉireann, Gaillimh. Ní fhéadfainn tabhairt faoin dúshlán sin gan na scileanna teanga, scríbhneoireachta agus cur i láthair a d’fhoghlaim mé le linn na máistreachta. Amanda Bernhardt & Seanchán Ó Cinnéide | Massachusetts Tugadh an deis don bheirt againn an MA i Nua-Ghaeilge a dhéanamh sa bhliain 2012. Le deontas ón Choimisiún Fulbright, bhí muid in ann bogadh go Gaillimh agus tabhairt faoin iarchéim le chéile. I dtús báire, mar Mheiriceánaigh ba dhúshlán mór é na cúrsaí a dhéanamh ag leibhéal chomh hard sin os rud é nach raibh an cúlra teanga céanna againne agus a bhí ag na mic léinn eile. Thug foireann Roinn na Gaeilge neart tacaíochta dúinn, áfach, agus tá muid thar a bheith buíoch díobh uilig. Ní amháin gur saineolaithe amach is amach iad sna hábhair atá á dteagasc acu, múinteoirí agus daoine den scoth atá iontu fosta. Anois, agus muid ar ais sna Stáit, bíonn muid ag teagasc na Gaeilge sna coláistí áitiúla agus ag stiúradh comhráite beo i nGaeilge ar líne. Bhí taithí ar dóigh againn i nGaillimh.
