Armagh Project 2013

Theater Events Coordinator and adjunct Kimberley Lynne will teach a playwriting residency in Armagh, Northern Ireland (IDIS301) with UB writers and EVP alums Chloe McDaniel and Christopher Warman and two other American students. The short plays developed over the month-long residency will be performed at international writing festival the John Hewitt Summer School on Wednesday 24 July at 19:00 Armagh time. We hope to webstream that performance, but American audiences will also be able to view the UB student plays in the Reflections and Echoes performance in the fall. Follow the students' progress via the Armagh Project 2013 blog.
