ESCOLME BM ( 2002 ) . Hamlet: West Yorkshire Playhouse, Dramaturgy Project . West Yorkshire Playhouse , Notes: This project involved my employment as Dramaturg on the West Yorkshire Playhouse’s production of Hamlet, directed by Ian Brown. My research imperative was to explore the potential relationships between performer and audience in the play, and the ways in which classically trained British actors, might be introduced to an approach to Shakespeare production that privileged meta-theatricality over character study. The project developed practices I had explored through ‘Hamlet: A Performance Research ,

ESCOLME BM ( 2002 ) . Measure for Measure: A Performance Research Project . Leeds, Amsterdam , Notes: This project was an exploration of the relationship between performer and audience in Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, its sources and adaptations. It comprised a series of workshops with Leeds theatre practitioners, including members of Unlimited Theatre, and staff and students from the University of Leeds. The workshops developed a process for the comparison of gestic and naturalistic approaches to performance, and was part of the AHRC Research Fellowship in the Creative and Performing Arts ,
