We’re excited to present four brand new translations developed during the fifth edition of our Theatre Translator Mentorship programme.
Launched in 2016, the programme is designed to develop and promote theatre in translation by nurturing a new generation of professional theatre translators.
Over the course of two nights, we’ll showcase plays by acclaimed playwrights from Hungary, Italy, Norway and Mexico, all translated into English for the first time.
Each night will include four play readings (20-minute extracts) performed by an international ensemble, followed by a post-show discussion with the translators and creative team.
The plays:
We Are Warriors by Monica Isakstuen
translated by Lise Lærdal Bryn
Suburban Miracles by Gabriele Di Luca
translated by Marco Young
Firefly Love by Alejandro Ricaño
translated by Tonya Walton
With me on her lap by Zsófia Znajkay
translated by Veronika Haacker-Lukacs
There will be a post-show discussion following the event lasting approx 30 mins
“It means so much to be working at CPT, it’s such a good opportunity to work in a professional environment at my age. I didn’t think that was ever going to happen and it means the world to me. It’s really going to help prepare me for my future and where I want to go”
