Cymbeline in the Anthropocene is pleased to announce the culmination of our international, collaborative performance project. In July, our research team and representatives from many of our collaborating theatres will meet in-person and virtually in Bozeman, Montana for a hybrid symposium showcasing the work of seven eco-theatrical productions of Cymbeline. 

In this fifth and final interview with the cast and crew of  Mónica Maffía's Setebos company, Randall Martin speaks with Nicolás McCormick, the production’s Assistant Director and Sound Designer. Here, Nicolás recounts how the play’s soundscapes helped the cast to channel the more-than-human characters they embodied onstage.

In this fourth interview with the cast and crew of  Mónica Maffía's Setebos company, Randall Martin speaks with Sophía Drever, who played the parts of actor Teresa, Cimbelino’s Ínogen, and the mythical Ter-Wer. Sophía discusses her recent journey from opera to Shakespeare and the emotional transformations of her three interlinked characters. 

In this third interview with the cast and crew of  Mónica Maffía's Setebos company, Randall Martin speaks with Alejandro Delgado, who created visual, lighting, and video art for Cimbelino en la Patagonia. Here, Alejandro discusses his collaborative methods with Mónica, the difficulty of balancing individual and collective views of environmental issues, and his own physical perspective on the spiritual experiences of nature. 

In this second interview with the cast and crew of Setebos' recent performance of Cimbelino en la Patagonia, Randall Martin speaks with Irina Solomonoff, who plays the actor Ángeles as well as Posthumo, Pisanio, and Cóndor in Mónica Maffía's play-within-a-play. Read on to learn about Irina's background, how she developed the physicality of each of her characters, and her interpretation of Posthumo's motivations throughout the play.
