CEO of The Everyman Seán Kelly says "This has been an incredibly challenging period for The Everyman, and our audiences have shown us tremendous support throughout. We're absolutely delighted to finally be able to welcome them, in person, again. The setting may be a little different but our commitment to supporting great artists and presently quality shows to our audiences, remains."
The Everyman Artistic Director Sophie Motley says "We are thrilled to be collaborating with Cork City Council to bring the energy of The Everyman to the walls of the fort this summer.
I'm so excited to announce my very first programme of live events as Artistic Director of The Everyman. We've got something for everyone, brought to you by the brilliant artists of Cork who have been in hibernation through these difficult times. Each bite-size outdoor show will be joyful, fun, and a taster of the thrill of live performance that we've all yearned for."
Michelle Carew, Arts Officer, Cork City Council says: "As the City re-opens we are delighted to support The Everyman to bring this special outdoor programme to Elizabeth Fort. Throughout the pandemic the Arts have been a source of comfort and escape for the people of Cork City and it is truly exciting to see Artists take to the stage once again this summer."
