Hosts Beck Lloyd and Khadijah Roberts-Abdullah start the episode by conversing about the delicate difference between translation and interpretation.
Listen as Canadian dramaturge and literary translator, Linda Gaboriau, along with the experienced team of translators and playwrights currently developing the new play Salesman in China (Leanna Brodie, Jovanni Sy and Fang Zhang), talk through the art of translation and the careful consideration needed to maintain the original beauty and intent of any given language within a work. This conversation was moderated by the Director of the Foerster Bernstein New Play Development Program, Keith Barker.
