Day five of #IASIL2025 which means it's time to say goodbye. The final panel and keynote did not disappoint, nor did the beautiful campus views that could almost make you forget you're on campus at all. Thank you to the organisers for such a beautiful and well-organised conference!

Today's keynote at #IASIL2025 was provided by Prof Breandán Mac Suibhne, who produced a 'micro history', exploring the real-life people and Marconi radio (which, he notes, is almost a character in its own right) that inspired Brian Friel’s 'Dancing at Lughnasa'.

Lonergan conceptualises the Covid-19 pandemic as an allegory for future ecological crises, with Irish drama acting as a dress rehearsal for climate change. He points to how artistic responses accelerated their thematic preoccupations during this period, focusing on the non-human #IASIL2025

One of the final panels today, titled 'Ecology, History, and
Historiography', is currently kicking off at the University of Galway, with Patrick Lonergan & Marisol Morales-Ladrón as speakers #IASIL2025

The panel "Remediation, Revolution, and Resistance in Irish Theatre and Performance" is currently underway at #IASIL2025, with speakers Clare Wallace, Miriam Haughton, and James Little

Day one of #IASIL2025 looked something like this: long walks, nature views, pints, chats, laughs. Plus a brilliant keynote by Gerardine Meaney.

Looking forward to presenting at IASIL 2025 in Galway, Ireland, this week!
