IASH / Traverse Creative Fellowship
10 January 2012 ← return to listing
We are delighted to announce our continued partnership with
Edinburgh University's Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities
in a Creative Fellowship to be based within the University.
IASH and the Traverse will commission a play on or inspired by any
aspect of the proposed topic, Difficult
Dialogues.
Based at IASH, the tenure of the Fellowship will be between
three and nine months, working towards a complete play which will
be submitted to the Traverse at the end of 2012. The playwright
will have access to dramaturgical support from the Traverse's
Literary Department and will play a part in the artistic life of
the theatre.
Jo Clifford and Linda McLean were the IASH / Traverse Creative
Fellows for 2011, and focused on the life and work of David Hume
during their Fellowships. Jo Clifford's resulting play, The Tree of
Knowledge, was staged at the Traverse as our 2011
Christmas production.
