Stéphanie Ghajar

I am a director dramaturge whose work delves into the human condition to explore the individual in deeply personal situations where the familiar motions of the everyday darken and veer towards the tragic, whilst maintaining a ritualistic performance in space and time.

Having worked in both film and theatre together has shown evident streaks of each medium seeping into the other throughout the work I do and am interested in.
