Bluepatch Productions: Talking Theatre with Artistic Director Aoife Connolly

21 Oct

Aoife Connolly

Bluepatch Productions staged one of the hits of the 2010 Galway Theatre Festival with their play Memory Palace. Now, with the Festival once again upon us, Artistic Director of Bluepatch Productions, Aoife Connolly, meets with Barry Houlihan to discuss their new work and their aims and focus as a company.

Rushing from an evening rehearsal session to make this interview you can tell Aoife Connolly is in full Theatre Festival mode. For this year’s Festival, Bluepatch Productions are staging their latest work Chasing Butterflies. This will be staged in collaboration with Dragonfly Theatre, In the Garden. As Artistic Director of Bluepatch, Connolly outlines how the company came about and in what direction their hopes and aims are focused.

“Bluepatch started as an idea during my M.A. in Theatre Directing in U.C.D., but starting my own company was always part of the plan to be honest. I was a working actress before I decided to undertake the M.A. and before deciding to focus on directing.  I had always felt I was missing out on something or not contributing enough to the creative process. Becoming a director allowed me that opportunity to shape and create my own work.”

    Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so
    I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for newbie blog writers? I’d really
    appreciate it.

    Your purchase may well show to be time-ingesting initially.
    It will take time for you to locate an possibility that may be successful, and later on,
    you might need to wait for fixes and remodeling before you commence monetizing your investment.

    Don’t stop trying, this procedure will require time as well as you simply need to be patient. You may be rewarded later on.

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something that I
    think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me.
    I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

    He listed energy efficiency, which not only addresses climate change and
    renewable trees energy for meeting the energy challenges. All
    of this could help the overall forward curve.
