Workshop on Multilingualism in Theatre in the ETB on 05.10.2021 as part of panorama #1<\/strong>: \u00fcbertheater<\/strong>\u00fcbersetzen, photo: Drama Panorama<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The workshop will consist of three sessions, one on Roman Sikora’s work, one on the theatre of Hanoch Levin and a closing discussion on translating political theatre. With practical discussions, chaired and led by the translators of the two authors, and lectures by the author Roman Sikora and other experts. The two anthologies of plays by Sikora and Levin will serve as examples and texts to work on for the workshop. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The final session brings together the discussions on political theatre and asks about the more general conditions and challenges for translating political theatre. What contextualisation does the translation of political theatre in particular demand? On the other hand, how do certain interests in the target country determine which playwrights gets translated and more importantly performed? What influences, in both content and form, whether a political play is translated and performed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
