Feminists Translate

PRESENTED BY OUT OF THE WINGS
Out of the Wings returns to the Omnibus for its annual festival of theatre from the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking worlds.

We always translate from a specific time and place. This workshop asks what happens when the place we translate from is feminism. The workshop will be led by Out of the Wings theatre translators and researchers, Catherine Boyle and Sophie Stevens, and theatre practitioners Gaël Le Cornec and Fran Olivares. We will explore the translation of activist hashtags and of dramatic texts and practices that test the limits of translation. What are they? What role do different subjectivities and positions play in the translation of texts across time and space?  We will explore texts in both  Spanish and Portuguese.

Generating relationships online … it’s child’s play. Digital society is driven by ambivalence and anxiety. Worlds we strive to belong to, escape us, like water slipping through our fingers. Worlds made of pills, racks, and plastic bags. Worlds of labels, stilettos, and shopping trolleys; of suicides and collectives. A metaverse.
