Episode 29: Precarious Spectatorship

This episode discusses my forthcoming book "Precarious Spectatorship: Theatre and image in an age of emergencies" (Manchester University Press, 2019). Many of the ideas in this book were first trialled on the Stage Blether podcast, so my heartfelt thanks to anybody and everybody who has listened over the last few years. Topics discussed include Islamic State, States of Emergency, the Refugee Crisis and storytelling.

Episode 28: Oedipus in the age of Post Truth

This episode reviews Robert Icke's Dutch Language production of "Oedipus" at the Kings Theatre in Edinburgh, part of the Edinburgh International Festival. The general conversation is about the ways in which this production relocates Oedipus in a world of post-truth, and the ways in which Sophocles' text still presents challenges to contemporary audiences.
