Collaboration in Theatre: A One-Day Symposium

Friday 19th October (Week 2), 9.15-6pm

St Luke's Chapel, Observatory Quarter, OX2 6HT

Collaboration is essential to theatre. However, it has only recently begun to receive the scholarly attention it deserves. This one-day, interdisciplinary and trans-period symposium will bring together academics, practitioners and practitioner-academics to think through theatrical collaboration together. In particular, talks will focus on collaborative theatre-making practices, collaborations between theatre and academia, and collaborations across borders.

Dr Duška Radosavljević (Royal Central School of Speech and Drama) will give the keynote, using the ensemble Improbable as a case study to define a 21st-century model of ensemble director. Practitioner speakers include playwright Bryony Lavery and director Melly Still in conversation about their adaptation of The Lovely Bones, and Zarema Zaudinova and Aleksandr Vartanov from documentary theatre company Teatr.doc.

A sandwich lunch with meat and vegetarian options will be provided. Please email [log in to unmask] if you have any allergies or other dietary requirements. The venue is wheelchair accessible and situated on the groundfloor. Do please let us know if you have any access requirements that we can help to accommodate.

Best,

Hannah Simpson
