ABSTRACT

Shakespeare deals with envy, jealousy, grief, ambivalence, horror, fear, fury,

sex, in profound ways that connect with all of us as human beings. I also use

other texts, especially from the Ancient Greeks, and I turn many myths and

legends into dramatic form. Through participation in a workshop or

performance, people not only feel differently; they also think differently.

Issues that seem insurmountable, landscapes that appear bleak and conflicts

that threaten to destroy all take on new dimensions through a theatre
