Backstage Pass with Auckland Theatre Co

Director Eleanor Bishop and actor Beatriz Romilly on tackling difficult topics


Listen Later

Join us in conversation with Girls & Boys director Eleanor Bishop and actor Beatriz Romilly.


We dive deep into the script and the character that makes this play so devastatingly poignant. We discuss working on a play with such heavy content and the emotional journey of the team and the character to bring this work from the page to the stage.


Beatriz has a diverse acting career across Stage, Film, TV and Animation, as well as in the gaming sector as a Voice-Over and Motion Capture Artist. You may remember her astonishing performance as Edmund in ATC’s King Lear last year.


Eleanor Bishop is a director and writer working across theatre, opera and film. In 2022, she was a winner of the Bruce Mason Playwriting Award, and The Theatre Times describe her as “one of New Zealand’s most daring, intelligent, and political directors.”
