International Workshops

Directors Symposium, La Mama Umbria, Spoleto, Italy

In July, 2023 I was invited to participate in the Directors Symposium at La Mama Umbria in Spoleto. I had the opportunity to work with renowned international directors including: Thomas Ostermeier (Germany), Dmitry Krymov (Russia), Ong Keng Sen (Singapore) and Iman Aoun (Palestine).

Devising with Ong Keng Sen

Dmitry Krymov as Serebryakov in a scene I directed from Uncle Vanya.

Arthaus Berlin, Berlin, Germany

In August 2021, I went to Berlin to develop devising techniques using archetypes and masks with Thomas Prattki at Arthaus Berlin's Center for Devising. We worked on incorporating the hero/heroine's journey into our mask work and looking at the shadow self as well as the neutral mask.
