The CCI is building relationships in order to broaden the profile of artists that spend time at the CCI. This will allow Irish artists to spend time with their international contemporaries… conversations start over a cup of coffee and can lead to the most exciting collaborations.

International Residency for Theatre-makers in association with The Abbey Theatre
The Abbey Theatre is supporting a 1-month residency for a theatre-maker to develop their practice as part of an international residency opportunity in the CCI from 16 November to 16 December 2025.
Two other national theatres/festivals will also support two theatre-makers who will reside in the CCI during the same period. The residency will include networking opportunities for all three theatre-makers. Our international partners are the Camões – Centro Cultural Português (Paris) and Teatro Nacional Dona Maria II (Portugal), and the Centre Culturel Hellénique (Paris) and National Theatre of Greece (Athens).
