learning so much

It reminds me of a David Attenborough documentary where he puts so much emotion and drama into interpreting and speaking for nature just going about it's business.

Hello thanks for this video. So clarifying. Do you have any suggestions like the books about dramaturgy or being a dramaturg that you find most useful and important? Thanks in advance

Katie I have just watched half of one of your videos and I don't want to overstate the point but you are the most amazing legend in the whole world. Possibly even a god.

pretty good

Got curious after seeing a credit for Dramaturg in the program for a wonderful performance by New Zealand's India Ink Theatre Company, here in the US. Still don't understand it, I'm afraid. From the description here and elsewhere, it seems like something a director would hate, a third wheel looking over their shoulder, interjecting ideas they don't need. Too many chefs. But apparently, that's not the case. I suppose it makes sense in practice, and maybe it's not something a non-participant can understand.

I'm a professional, and I'm an actor. There don't seem to be a lot of me.

Its the same everywhere 😊

Love this!! so true😁😂 also, 3:55 I'm guilty here🙈😅

This is really amazing work. So entertaining as well. Deserves so much more views and also sad that you dont upload anymkre after finding you.

No we need to scrap rte. Its fake news. They constantly talk down to youth and call everyone right wing when they don't agree with them. They also replaced Claire Byrnes show with some other equivalent where again their talking about multiple issues and not the main topic of discussion and ending with "irish people are lovely". They also constantly live in their own bubble. Claire Byrne went on a holiday during covid and then demonised others for doing the same and bringing delta in. Its beyond stupid of why we're still paying a tv licence.

I'm sorry. Although there were some very good tips, the way the information was put over was in some ways childish. I would have preferred it to be straight, but that's just me. I have a lot of information on what writers come up against. And there were some excellent tips on how to overcome these in this video which was missed out on the others, and by famous writers, so, all in all thank you.

What exactly is being "mediated" or "translated" by a dramaturg? Furthermore, what's being "edited" and "sculpted"? The definition offered is extremely vague. A nothing burger -

Bokura ima Saa Saa kuraiiate

Dramaturg is to Theatre Director what an Editor is to Film Director, an Audience Representative in the Creative Process.

thank you for this. i was wondering what this had to to with playwriting but it looks as if i don't need to consider this and it only takes place post-playwriting.

for those with adhd and impatience - starts at 1:49

Hi Katie! Love your video! What litterature would you reccommend to an aspiring dramaturg? Thanks!

Our class found your video helpful in understanding what a dramaturg is and what they do. We can feel your energetic passion and enthusiasm for your work. We appreciate the time and thought that you put into this video. Thank you - With Love and Support, Guajome Park Seniors - Go Frogs!

So true, there is a huge struggle between being artistically fulfilled and trying to make money to support yourself. I am 8 years out from grad school and still trying to balance freelancing. I'm so happy I'm just now finding your content.

I am a costume designer working in NYC. I love this video, so informative about the position of the Dramaturge. I Can't wait to check out all your videos.

I love this video! I’ve literally come back to watch it through each stage and it’s been dead on! And has helped me get through the stages. Your funny personality makes me laugh and gives me a lot of comfort to not give up! I think I’m nearing completion and finally seeing that light at the end of the tunnel!

Blood on your hands.

A good tip if you're a newbie....Cut your teeth on your local Authority applications, they're usually shorter Excellent strategy tip from a friend.... have a scale-able version of your project, so that if you don't get big money, you can do a 'work in process' version of the work to develop from... the €250 version, the €2k version & the €15k version... and then go back to them to sell the dream harder ( 'if I had big money, think of how much better my work would be...') The budget???.... google the price of all your materials, pick the more expensive quotes... so you've given yourself a 'contingency'

This girl is sooooo AMAZING !! Katie, Your voice is so cool and the content super helpful ❤️🙏🏾 I need to save that video!

A bit wird but the informations are very help full

This is brilliant and kept me sane (ish) filling in the form. Hope you got lots of well deserved funding!

You are awesome!!!

I always think of the dramaturg as the "accuracy-police". 😄

I can strongly relate Katie, I'm a professional playwright of unwanted scripts. But I keep going...I will never give up...until starvation claims me. Loved your video, you made me face myself. Maybe I will get that job in the bank?

You have a really cool job!

this video got on my last nerve

This is hilarious and so helpful

Is she drunk?

You rock

I love you to BITS!

Sooo entertaining and informative.

You teach with such energy, such liveliness, such passion, such insight! And your humour...only an Irish lass could do what you do! And I loved the way you type - such dedication and focus and those head gyrations, wow..."Go you!"

I sent your video to my sister and she wrote back: She’s brilliant...I love her!! So many hand gestures and so much wisdom!! She had some great tips for my accent...with becomes wit, and thought becomes taught. So helpful. Thank you.

I rly fucking like your videos!

Love your style!!!!

I would like to blows up the hellywood.

I have never seen a clumsiest system of application than that of Arts Council. Its so cumbersome, it distracts people, it stresses people and let people get lost. Reading documents after documents, they are simply designed to confuse and discourage people. Why can't be a simple I.e. details, names, proof of Id, proofs for programmes and simply let people to submit what they want to do or have been doing. With the ways of RedTapes that the software systems are developed, it kills arts, aspirations and true potentials of the arts & creativity. In time like Covid, Arts Council should encourage the creative people to be part of the arts council, instead it repells people. OMG wish this current software systems are dumped . Its an insults to the soul, mind and talents of people in the UK. Its really really bad. Its not only sorry but pathetic and humiliating. Will AC think of it?

Yup, this just about sums it up perfectly. Love it. And will be taking up dog walking or something similar.

Fabulous video! Love your accent!

KATIE...YOU ARE A GREAT ACTRESS.... SO COOL.... TQ

Katie, you are a complete star. Thanks so much.
