5th EASTAP Conference

Theatrical Mind:
Authorship, Staging and Beyond


Milan, 23-27 May 2022

As a continuation of, and in line with, the themes of the previous editions – Paris (2018), Lisbon (2019), Bologna (2020), Vilnius (2021) –, the 5th international EASTAP (European Association for the Study of Theatre and Performance) Conference will take place within the framework of the International Festival that the Piccolo Teatro di Milano is dedicating to Strehler in May 2022, entitled Presente indicativo: per Giorgio Strehler (paesaggi teatrali). The aim of the Conference is to offer an in-depth and multi-faceted examination of the idea of the Theatrical Mind in relation to the various forms of live performance (for example, from prose to performance, to musical theatre and dance) and in light of the relationship between theory and practice.
The Conference programme includes speeches from keynote speakers; numerous sessions with thematic panels involving experts, artists, researchers and professionals from the world of live performance; round tables; workshops with some of the most important Italian and international theatrical artists; presentations of research projects by young scholars as part of the Emerging Scholars’ Forum.
The Associate Artist of the Conference is the Argentinian choreographer Constanza Macras.

2022 ASSOCIATE ARTIST AND SCHOLAR

EASTAP Associate Artist for 2022: Constanza Macras

Constanza Macras was born in Buenos Aires where she studied dance and fashion design, but she soon moved to Amsterdam and New York to continue her dance studies at Merce Cunningham Studios. In 2003 – with the help of Carmen Menher as associate dramaturg, who is still collaborating on most of Macras’ shows – she founded DorkyPark, an interdisciplinary ensemble that works with dance, text, live music, and film. In 2008, she received the Goethe-Institut Award for an outstanding German production for Hell on Earth, while in 2021 Macras and the company were awarded the Tabori Prize, the nation's highest award for the independent performing arts. In 2022, she will be developing a piece at MIT where she already was awarded in 2010.
