Varvara Sklez

Oleg Orlov's relatives fear for his condition due to exhausting journeys from the detention centre to court. His lawyers filed complaints about inhuman treatment and violating the right of defence. 1/7

And so begins the conference “Locations of (Dis)embodied Labour in Theatre and Performance” at Wolfson Research Exchange @ University of #Warwick #performancestudies #labour #humanitiesresearchcentre @HRCWarwick @TheatreWarwick

Coming this week. We can't wait for this day to happen!

Great to see this collection out there, featuring contributions from four of our team: Milija Gluhovic, Silvija Jestrovic, @VSklez and our much-missed late colleague Jim Davis.

There are a few more days - till 16 November - to register for the conference. Do join us! warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/scapv…

It is with a very heavy heart that we share the news that Professor Jim Davis passed away on Saturday 4th November. Everyone who had the pleasure of encountering Jim will appreciate that this is a huge loss for his family, friends, colleagues, and the wider research community.

Just got to know that The Palgrave Handbook of Theatre and Migration, for which Mark Simon and I wrote a chapter about migrant artists and precarious labor in Russian theater, has appeared online. Such an amazing collection to contribute to! link.springer.com/chapter/10.100…

Excited to announce a funded PhD position - a partnership between @TheatreWarwick and @Woburn_Abbey. The project is titled 'Theatre and the Aristocracy: Passion, Patronage, Power and Politics, 1771-1893'. Please retweet to your networks. More info here: midlands4cities.ac.uk/find-a-project/

Julia Listengarten talking about Julia Tsvetkova at #IFTR2022

More terrible news for the Russian feminist community. The general persecutor demanded a sentence of 3 years and 2 months in prison for "distributing pornography" to the artist Yulia Tsvetkova. Yulia had a blog on body positivity, where she published drawings of female bodies.
