Speaker: Shivaike Shah, Founder & Producer, Khameleon Productions

Title: Uprooting Medea Presentation

Abstract: The Uprooting Medea presentation will introduce our Medea project, and discuss the development and adaptation of our work since its original conception in Oxford. Our Medea questions the pertinent topics of race, belonging and identity through centering these themes which are already prevalent in Euripides’s original. The presentation will explore our creative practice of elevating global-majority artists through multimedia forms including theatre, film, music and poetry. The presentation will give an insight into our upcoming short film project (to be released later in 2022), and our full staged work.
