In celebration of trying new formats in a world that is rapidly changing and has been forced into digitalization, this response-review from www.lostdramaturgininternational.wordpress.com is accompanied by an audio discussion with UK theatre-artist Kara Chamberlain. Writing is never a lonely process for me. All of my review-responses are born out of long discussions about the production I have watched with friends, family, and people I meet outside the theatre after the premiere. Alongside my classic essay-style response to Swiss-German theatre-maker Milo Rau’s newest production, Mozart’s final opera "La clemenza di Tito," is the roughly one-hour discussion from which this essay was born. In this discussion we talk about a number of points not necessarily covered in the review itself and it gives insight into my writing, as well as dramaturgical and critical, process.

Kara Chamberlain is a Canadian born England-based actor, producer, playwright, director, and musician. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Drama (honors) from the University of Alberta and a Master of Arts in Acting from Bristol’s Old Vic Theatre School. She is the co-founder of the London production company Crossline Theatre. Kara is currently writing a one-woman show about life with an anxiety disorder (Headcase). You can find more information about Crossline Theatre’s past, present, and forthcoming productions at www.crosslinetheatre.com and follow Kara on Instagram (@kara_chamb or @crosslinetheatre).
