LegalAliens’ Lara Parmiani, Becka McFadden and Emmanuela Lia, creator of Things I Am Not, sit for a chat with Roxana Silbert, Artistic Director of Hampstead Theatre.Roxana is one of very few women born outside the UK who currently hold leadership roles at producing theatres with their own buildings. We discuss how her childhood journey from Argentina to England led her to a career in theatre, why international accents are still taboo on British stages, Brexit, and the challenges of producing innovative, ‘outsider’ theatre. Roxana Silbert is the Artistic Director of Hampstead Theatre. She has previously served as Artistic Director of Birmingham REP and Artistic Director of Paines Plough. She has been Associate Director at the RSC, Literary Director of the Traverse Theatre, and Associate Director at the Royal Court Theatre.https://www.hampsteadtheatre.com/Producing Artistic Director: Lara ParmianiConcept: Emmanuela LiaDirector: Becka McFadden & Lara ParmianiWebsite design: Daiva DominykaSocial media: Catharina ConteOriginal Music: Angelina Rud & Martin BakeroHas this conversation resonated with you?
