As Cork City Culture Night unfolds on streets and venues through the city and county on Friday, The Everyman will take the opportunity to introduce their new Executive Director/CEO, Anna Marie Coughlan, and their new Artistic Director, Des Kennedy at a function in the theatre where details of their Autumn Programme will also be announced.
Anna Marie Coughlan says she is delighted to have started work in her new position having formerly been Development and Partnership Manager at the theatre for 8 years.
“We will continue our mission to be an organisation that grows with a vibrant relevant and sustainable future, where the arts can thrive in the heart of our community.
“I look forward to working with Des Kennedy our new Artistic Director and The Everyman team, in this a whole new and very exciting era for the theatre.”
Des Kennedy spent 20 years abroad and says ‘it’s a dream come true to be returning to Ireland to make theatre here’.
“I am so excited at the opportunity to get to know The Everyman audience, to understand what makes them tick, to programme things they love and to challenge them to try things they might not yet know they love.”
