            <text>‘Performing the City: Marston’s London 1605 and Toronto 2019’ (Panel 4: Learning From&#13;
Rehearsal and Production – 2:15-3:30PM, 23 March 2019)&#13;
&#13;
Noam Lior (University of Toronto)&#13;
&#13;
Marston’s The Dutch Courtesan, like many city comedies, presents a paradoxical view of London. On the one hand, the city is proudly cosmopolitan and international, multi-cultural and multilinguistic.&#13;
On the other hand, the city is deeply anxious about its identity, and which influences are to be seen as invasive or corrupting. Franceschina, the eponymous courtesan, is othered through her nationality and accent, while other characters are othered through affiliation with a minority&#13;
religion. Identity and otherness form the framework of the comedy, in which laughter often signals a distinction between ‘us’ and ‘them’. This paper sketches out the play’s concerns with identity and otherness as a link between 17th century London and 21st century Toronto, a link which forms the&#13;
basis for our production.&#13;
&#13;
Noam is one of the co-founders of Shakespeare at Play, and works as the project's dramaturge, editor, annotator, and occasional performer (playing older male roles when better actors are not&#13;
available). Noam is an alumnus of the University College Drama Program and the Centre for Drama, Theatre, and Performance Studies at the University of Toronto, where his dissertation focused on digital multimedia Shakespeare editions. He also works as a director and dramaturge&#13;
(sometimes even on non-Shakespeare plays!), is serving as dramaturge and judge for Spur-of-the-Moment Shakespeare Company's ShakesBeers Showdown. He is also Finance and Publications Co-ordinator for the Centre for Reformation and Renaissance Studies.</text>
