Description

The JOOT Theatre Company was established in 1992 as the Mediaeval Drama Group, changing their name in 2003. Under the direction of Dr Jodi-Anne (Jo) George of the English programme at the University of Dundee, the company has undertaken many well-received performances and participates actively in a series of festivals funded by the International Society for Mediaeval Theatre. In 1998, they performed in Denmark, in 2001 they staged a play in The Netherlands, and in 2008 they performed in France. We aim to stage at least one production annually and students are recruited from all years. Normally, about 10-12 students (and at least two University staff members) are involved in each show. Recent productions have included: 'A Woman Taken in Adultery' and Oscar Wilde's A Florentine Tragedy (2013), John Pikeryng's Horestes (2012), Anthony Salvador's Hollow Earth (2011), and Oscar Wilde's Salome in a double bill with the mediaeval mystery play The Slaughter of the Innocents (2010).
