Dear colleagues,
I'm writing with an invitation to a series of three readings and discussions of two new documentary plays by leading Ukrainian playwrights Anastasiia Kosodii and Kateryna Penkova.
Commissioned by Birkbeck’s Centre for Contemporary Theatre and Birkbeck’s Institute for Gender and Sexuality, these texts exemplify the remarkable culture of defiance and resistance in Ukrainian political playwriting and demonstrate how theatre-makers are using their craft to speak out against the atrocities of Russia’s ongoing war.
The texts will be read in full, followed by an in-person discussion with the writers and project curator Dr Molly Flynn at London’s Camden People’s Theatre at 5pm on Sunday 4 December.
The playwrights will also be reading excerpts from their texts and be joined in discussion by Dr Zbigniew Wojnowksi at Brasnose College in Oxford on 1 December at 7:30, and with Dr Olga Danylyuk at Royal Central School of Speech and Drama on Tuesday 6 December at 6pm.
