Clíona Dukes and Caoimhe Connolly - creative producers - are the duo behind the annual Scene + Heard Festival of New Work in Smock Alley Theatre, now in its 5th year. Caroline applauds their combined ability to facilitate over 100 shows in under three weeks, supporting hundreds of artists as they turn their creative dreams into concrete theatre pieces. They talk about why it’s vital to develop trust with your collaborators, avoiding burnout, and how to gain an audience one ticket at a time!
I'm Caroline! Over the years, I've started a bunch of creative projects I've failed to finish.
So I wanted to talk to creative people - writers, filmmakers, comedians, photographers, musicians, and more - about how they work, and what they do when things get tough - learn the secrets of finishing!
From Dublin, Ireland - it's Operation: Project!
