Level 8

During the MA, I also completed a range of modules and projects which saw me work closely with other students outside of my discipline but which enriched my thinking and creativity as a result. I plan to teach, design, perform and continue to expand my horizons in the creative arts industry in the future.

Having graduated from IT Sligo’s BA in Performing Arts in Acting last year, I was delighted to get the opportunity to continue my studies in the creative sector by doing this Masters in Creative Practice. During the MA, I returned to my interest in theatre design having studied it in the first year of my undergraduate degree. This proved a great choice as I submitted my design for the Abbey Theatre Bursary Award and was chosen as this year’s winner! This means I get a six-month paid residency in the Abbey in 2021-2022.
