CAS Talk: Jorge Ramos (Zecora Ura)
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2016, 18:00 - 20:00
Venue: Interact Labs, Phoenix, Leicester
Zecora Ura co-director Jorge Ramos talks about his work with creative technologies and how he deals with experimentation and research in his practice.
Jorge Lopes Ramos is joint artistic director of internationally acclaimed Zecora Ura, an organization based both in Rio de Janeiro and East London since 2001. Jorge creates playful theatrical structures that allow for a participatory, immersive and interactive perspective of the theatrical event. He focuses his professional practice and research on the unspoken contract between the audience and the actor, which is underpinned by his work on the Dramaturgy of Participation. His latest production HOTEL MEDEA, which runs from midnight to dawn in real time, has been touring to critical acclaim and has won a number of international awards, and is a development of Jorge's investigation on the applications of critical play theory in immersive theatrical events.
