Out of the Wings Forum 2024: Worldmaking on Stage: Theatre Translation Practice and Future-Making
As part of the 2024 Out of the Wings Festival, Out of the Wings is once again coming together with Language Acts and Worldmaking and the Goldsmiths Translation Research Group to offer a one-day discussion forum aimed at theatre translation practitioners and researchers, at King’s College London on 16 July, the first day of the 2024 OOTW Festival.
At the Forum, we will bring together practitioners and researchers — actors, directors, producers, literary managers, commissioning editors, dramaturges, writers, translators, research students, theatre translation trainers, theatre translation lecturers, and academics — to engage with ideas on staging, teaching, and researching translated theatre.
Our full call for presenters, along with the proposal form, can be found here. Applications will be accepted until 26 April at 17:00BST.
