Graduate Student, Theatre Criticism and Dramaturgy
About
Although my main areas of research are contemporary performing arts & film theory, my wider academic interests also include political theory, ethics and social theory. I am very much interested in the work of Jacques Rancière, Hannah Arendt, Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe, Roberto Esposito, Giorgio Agamben, Boris Groys and in the relationship between aesthetics and the political in general. My research in theatre draws on debates in political theory about biopolitics and everyday life as well as the representations of the political in everyday life and also on the stage. Currently, I aim to investigate to what extent the theatre itself could be defined as “political" and I am developing further research on "political difference".
