Engagement with the Theatre

Theatre: About

I offer consulting and dramaturgy, especially related to representations of identity through language and accents.  

I work with artists and theaters on script development and staging possibilities for classical and early modern plays and adaptations, intercultural, ethnic, bilingual and semi-bilingual theatre. 

I engage with theaters through The Casting Conversation, a series of talks and workshops about opportunities for casting practices.
