#Collaboration: Laura Savia and Shakina Nayfack

September 13, 2020

 

Right off the heels of recording their play for Audible. Chonburi International Hotel & Butterfly Club's Laura Savia (Director & Associate Artistic Director of Williamstown Theatre Festival) and Shakina Nayfack (Actress/Playwright) come together to discuss what it takes to turn a stage play into a radio play, how to empower voices beyond their own in the room, and how to lead a team during a pandemic. 

 

Chonburi International Hotel & Butterfly Club by Shakina Nayfack, presented by Williamstown Theatre Festival and Audible will be released on Audible on December 29, 2020.

 

#COLLABORATION, The Drama League's new series of conversations that provide a window into the partnership process between a director and a playwright, designer, producer, or actor. In each episode, artists will discuss their journey together on a project and their relationship as collaborators. The process of creating art is revealed in these intimate, surprising, and wide-ranging conversations with award-winning collaborators from around the world.  

 

The artists in this video have donated their time and fees to help provide much-needed aid, relief, and programs for stage directors affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. You can help! Donate here: http://bit.ly/DLdonations
