Biography
After directing plays by Henrik Ibsen, Anton Chekhov and Lars Norén, Lorraine de Sagazan has developed a body of work since 2020 that is not based on theatrical texts but rather on encounters with strangers. The narratives and personal histories she collects have led her to examine the ways in which fiction can respond to reality. Her latest work focuses on neglected marginal alternatives to contemporary justice, based on strategies of understanding and reparation. Her diverse projects, at the crossroads of performance, theatre and the visual arts, are at pains to create utopian, imaginary counter-spaces in response to societal and institutional concerns.
