History edit

The Lir Academy was founded by Danielle Ryan in 2011 in collaboration with Trinity College [2] in response to its parent, Trinity College, discontinuing its acting course in 2007.[3][4][5] In May 2008, a recommendation was made from the Forum on Actor Training recommending the creation of a national academy of dramatic art to provide university accredited education.[6] The Cathal Ryan Trust funded a purpose-built premises for the Lir,[7] located in Grand Canal Dock in Dublin.

In 2017, The Lir had an annual income of €2.1 million and staged 10 theatre shows, an opera production, two short films, a design exhibition and an industry showcase.[4]

Courses edit

The Lir provides conservatoire training with degrees in acting, stage management and technical theatre, along with Masters in Fine Art for playwriting, theatre directing and stage design.[8] The school also offers short courses and diploma programs in a range of performing arts disciplines. The Bachelor In Acting, is a three-year degree course for approximately sixteen students per year, has auditions in Ireland and abroad. The academy offers practical training for actors based in part on the acting technique of Konstantine Stanislavski, in combination with training in voice and movement. .[9]
