An interview with David Boceta, director of En otro reino extraño (2020) for Spain's Joven Compañía Nacional de Teatro Clásico, details the innovative collaboration in digital theater that took shape in the spring of 2020 in response to a seeming calamity for theater professionals—the sudden shutdown of theaters precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The director explains how the team of collaborators recontextualized a selection of comedias, prose drama, and lyric poetry in which Lope de Vega pondered exile, love, and poetic creation at the end of the sixteenth century. A writer's dislocation became a powerful metaphor for a theater company exploring a new realm for theater performance using a videoconferencing platform.
