Nationhood in Dialogue
Student actors Abbie Smith, Dan Bell and Ella Davis debate “nationhood”.

Nationhood? What is it? What does it mean?

From 14-25 May 2018, students at Northumbria University in Newcastle, UK, will research the topic of nationhood and use Linda Taylor’s “operations of dialogue” process to create performances. Collaborating with Helen Varley Jamieson, the students will use UpStage and the format of “We have a Situation!” to bring their work to a global audience and stimulate transcultural discussions on nationhood.

The performance takes place on Friday 25 May, at 7pm UK time; find your local time here.
More information is available on the WHAS website.
