Rosemary George (New York, USA)

An intriguing, soul-searching masterclass into the theatrical lens of fantasy and reality. Join multi-faceted Professor Rosemary George for 'a sophisticated examination of humanity's innate desire to understand identity, how it allows us to express or hide the most authentic version of ourselves (leaving) no stone unturned' (TheatreView.org.nz) as she probes the hidden meanings of life considering 'the jester as the communicator of the soul' (LouReviews.blog). 'Successfully steers a course between the jagged rocks of academic dryness and the coral reefs of mundanity' (EdinburghGuide.com). ‘Brilliantly and eloquently written’ (Audience review).
