Dramaturgs &: In Conversation with Directors
DRAMATURGS & is a capsule series of roundtable conversations centering the work of and relationship between dramaturgs and their artistic collaborators. Dramaturgical thinking and application is integral in the work of all artists, yet a dramaturg’s role affords a dedicated lens that can expand and challenge artistic decisions. In cosy and candid sessions, we aim to unpack the relational, intricate and often invisible work of dramaturgs in creative processes and within artistic teams.
The third of this year’s series is DRAMATURGS & DIRECTORS, where we explore the working relationships between these two roles. What might directors want from dramaturgs as collaborators? How is the dramaturgical thinking a dramaturg offers different from that of a director? Can a dramaturg’s contribution reveal blindspots in the director’s vision and what happens then?
Join us for this thought-provoking conversation facilitated by Cherilyn Woo and bring your questions for our exciting panel of artists including Kok Heng Leun, Huzir Sulaiman and Sim Yan Ying.
