Dublin Theatre Festival: Lynne Parker and Rough Magic

INTERVIEW: LYNNE PARKER

The founder and artistic director of Rough Magic Theatre Company talks to Carole Woddis about Phaedra, a new version of Racine’s play, written by Hilary Fannin, and with music inspired by Rameau’s opera by Ellen Cranitch. Recorded at Rough Magic, Dublin.

We’re a very text-based company – the spoken word is our stock-in-trade, but there’s always a point when language becomes musical.
