Started! @EarlyModernDoc asks us to think about the title, what kind of older patriarchal power are we trying to overthrow? Also, whose grandad are we talking about? What if we are BIPOC, do our genealogies matter? #NotGranShax #ShakeRace 1/https://twitter.com/SRSRenSoc/status/1285226891696316416 …

@noraj_williams up next.. Starts by telling us to read and cite Ayanna Thompson "a production itself is not enough to start a dialogue." also citing me and@prof_nmehdiz we need to scaffold the learning for our students, especially about uncomfortable topics.#ShakeRace 13/Näytä tämä ketju -

@KathrynVSantos and MR's SAA seminar, "Open Secrets," and trying to locate a play that did not enact violence against women. Quoting@KirstenNMendoza "Trigger Warnings," the scenes of violence reverberate in our lived experiences.#ShakeRace 14/Näytä tämä ketju -
Scaffolding these conversations is just as important but a lot more difficult than doing it for our actors or our students because we don't have enough contact with our audience. The scaffold must be built quickly. 15/

@noraj_williams sharing new research on@PublicTheaterNY's radio play production of#RichardII. Theater education as something broader than interaction with students. citing@ERLathrop's work on teaching artists planting important questions in the audience. 16/Näytä tämä ketju -
@PublicTheaterNY's Richard II, the most important question: why are we doing this play right now? The answer isn't "because it's Shakespeare." To sit with this question when they programmed the play and producing the radio play. 17/Näytä tämä ketju -
How can we keep prioritizing the democratization of theater when we return to some semblance of our old world. 18/

The people want their Hamlet. We are also free to interpret Shakespeare in our own way. The question is: who owns Shakespeare.... 21/pic.twitter.com/eZw5dDpnEC

We're at the q&a. Talking about what to do with a dramaturge, usually folks don't know what to do, and with Shakespeare, people usually think they know what this is. 24/

@noraj_williams precarity exists in the theater, for actors of color. Also within the asymmetrical power dynamics backstage. 25/Näytä tämä ketju -
What about non-Anglophone productions? "Many productions exist outside of the periphery of whiteness" @drlettycgarcia, talking about Mendoza and Huapango. There are effective productions that are being made outside of the Anglo-American sphere.

@aewaiwhy asks how militarism and empire enter through the back door of cultural tourism in these appropriations of other cultures. AD here: also think about the collusion of Shakespeare with empire and militarism. 28/Näytä tämä ketju -
Question about making edits to the Shakespearean texts to remove the racist language or the rhetorical violence of the play... What do we do when we edit? Are we fixing a problem or are we hiding a problem? Can we fix the problem with that language?
