Windows Onto the World: New Works in Translation by Caridad Svich in The Brooklyn Rail Theater Section In Translation (web-only)
THE GRADUATE CENTER THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK
NoPe - NoPassport Conference DREAMING THE AMERICAS / THE BODY POLITIC IN PERFORMANCE NoPassport presents a one-day conference with the support of The Alliance for Inclusion in the Arts, Translation Think Tank, and in collaboration with Frank Hentschker and the Martin E. Segal Theatre Center. Initiated by Caridad Svich www.caridadsvich.com/NoPassport
The conference will focus on a wide range of contemporary works for theatre and performance, viewing the body politic from a variety of formal perspectives. Topics that will be addressed in panels and special presentations include: the myriad articulations of political theatre, the face of theatre and social justice, mending democracy through theatre, dramaturgy affected by new technologies, performing the borderlands in and outside the US, intercultural negotiations in acts of translation, reconfiguring the classics, history, memory and transculturation in new writing. There will also be a book launch event for the release of three volumes from NoPassport Press.
NoPassport was founded by playwright Caridad Svich as a Pan-American theatre alliance & press devoted to action, advocacy, and change toward the fostering of cross-cultural diversity and difference in the arts with an emphasis on the embrace of the hemispheric spirit in US Latina/o and Latin-American theatre-making.
Special thanks are given to The Segal Center for facilitating book sales at this event, Robert Jereski for help with coordination of the Plan Mexico panel, and the NoPe Conference Steering Committee: Daniel Banks, Daniel Brunet, Rafael Gallegos, Lanna Joffrey and Christina Marin.
