MARA KORPER
/THEATREMara Korper, staged by Jayde Kirchert and Citizen Theatre at Theatreworks, featured Shamita Siva in the role of Assistant Konrad—a fiercely patriotic and sycophantic character.
Emerging from Melbourne's stringent lockdowns, this production uniquely adapted to safety regulations by placing audiences in clear perspex boxes, enhancing the play's dystopian sci-fi ambiance. Shamita relished the opportunity to dive into the rigid angularity and intense loyalty of Assistant Konrad, a role that starkly contrasted her own personality.
“Shamita Siva as Assistant Konrad filled every line with ferocity and devout allegiance to The Mother, bursting energy into every scene”
