Curator’s Tour of ‘Poster Boys’

Join curator Dr Linda King for a tour and discussion of the exhibition ‘Poster Boys: the work of Kevin Scally and Brendan Foreman for the Abbey Theatre.’

‘Poster Boys’ focusses on the two main posters designers for the Abbey during the 1970s-1980s, Kevin Scally and Brendan Foreman, and their methods of visually interpreting a stage production. The printing processes and technologies, which themselves were evolving during the period, are also examined.

Free, booking essential. Offered as part of the Dublin Festival of History.

Note: This tour will be conducted in the temporary exhibition space on the Mezzanine level, which is regrettably not accessible to wheelchair users.
