Welcome to Emergence Festival
Emergence is a festival of new work from the graduating artists of the MFA Acting/Directing Classical and Contemporary Text programme.
Emergence 2024 included five provocative live performances and a gripping short film triple bill presented across two nights in January within Glasgow’s Centre for Contemporary Arts. These eight projects are the result of what can happen when artists are given a small budget and autonomy to respond to the provocation: what is the future of theatre?

A Masters for Actors & Directors
Our MA/MFA Acting/Directing Classical and Contemporary Text programme is for actors and directors who use their social, moral, and ethical values to animate their practice.
Our actors and directors look beyond traditional and contemporary artistic approaches as they broaden and deepen their individual practice, and flourish as both learners and creative practitioners.
Graduates include Jeremy Crawford, Ayana Bey, Debbie Hannan and Eklovey Kashyap.
