NUIG/CON245/12 - Abbey Theatre Archive Digitisation Services
The Abbey Theatre and National University of Ireland, Galway, have entered into a partnership to digitise the archive of the Abbey Theatre. The partnership was launched on 22.10.2012 by Ireland’s President, Michael D. Higgins. It is the largest digital theatre project ever undertaken, and heralds a new era of scholarship for Irish theatre internationally.
The Abbey archive is one of the world’s most significant archival collections. It has a wealth of extraordinary and unique material providing a fascinating insight into Irish theatre, history, culture and society. The archival material ranges from show posters, programmes, photographs, minute books to lighting plans, set and costume designs, sound cues, prompt scripts and audio files.
National University of Ireland now invites tenders to complete the digitisation, cataloguing and online publication of the archive of the Abbey Theatre as a 2-year project from September 2013.
