We have to date produced, wrote, created three full length theatre productions ('Exit Strategy', 'Osteoporosis', 'No One Can Hear You In There') all of which premiered as part of the Cork Midsummer Festival as part of the WE LIVE HERE platform, Solstice 2012 and Solstice 2011 respectively. As well as two looser, experimental theatre events '...because the bus is always late' a site specific theatre happening at the 2010 Cork Culture Night and the 'Makeshift Christmas Flashmob' and MP3 experiment in December 2010. We also ran a theatre development programme entitled Let's Play! In 2011/2012 and established Quarter a pop-up arts resource centre in Cork over a three month period in 2012/13. In these two projects alone we organised 20 events including PARABOLA a two day mini-festival, various professional development workshops, visual arts exhibitions, music gigs, theatre nights and short residencies. In 2015, in association with Southern Hospitality Board, we produced Quarter Block Party, a new arts festival that took over North and South Main St in Cork city for a weekend in February. We look forward to the next instalment in 2016. Makeshift Ensemble is also founding member of the Firestarter Network.
