• Artistic Collaborations via Skype: Turning Distance into Drama

  by Robert Matney, Derek Kolluri, Beth Burns, Conor Roche, Judd Farris, Rachel Watkinson and Mimi Poskitt

  Skype and other video conferencing tools now enable distance to become an asset (and a sexy marketing tool) rather than a deal-breaker in collaborations between artists on the other side of the world. Austin company the Hidden Room and London company Look Left Look Right are working on two cutting edge theatre projects together via Skype (one Shakespeare, one improvisational comedy) and are finding inspiration and a solid new work model. International rehearsal demonstration included!
