Dramaturgy

care-principled

practice-driven

audience-conscious​

I think of dramaturgy as being with – being with the topics and questions a research or project deals with, accompanying them towards their becoming as an artistic practice or a piece. Crucial to my dramaturgical work is a practice of cartography: Situating the research/ project within a landscape of discourse, histories, visions, and hopes. All my dramaturgical work is driven by principles of care – towards the research/ project at hand, the artists involved, the context and environment it falls in, as well as the audiences it addresses and receives.

Each process is unique and hence requires a conversation on needs, expectations, and resources before entering a collaboration. Based on former collaborations, the work packages below are most often requested:

– production dramaturgy

– new piece development (from first ideas to making a piece)

– research

– concept development + writing

– feedback sessions/ „outside eye“

– development of encounters with the audience

I base my work on the specific needs of a project and I’m interested in finding out together how to accommodate my services to best fit the situation.
