Trapdoor & the Creative Arts Research Lab
CFA at UCD has developed two new facilities to support student creativity and digital skills. ‘Trapdoor’, a state-of-the-art Blackbox theatre, is housed in the former Dramsoc Theatre in the Newman Building. The transformation the space into a multi-purpose facility to support teaching in drama, music, film, creative writing, and digital content creation. This state-of-the-art studio will be a major hub for CFA students, hosting performances, rehearsals, events and workshops.
Trapdoor was developed alongside an experimental Creative Arts Research media lab, which will provide students the opportunity to develop skills in digital content creation, production, design, and cultivate their talent in the best way possible - learning by doing.
