We are opening the doors to an area that has left its mark on Turkish theater history. This podcast series is part of a research process that began with the donation of the TAL (Theater Research Laboratory) Archive to Kadir Has University. Led by Associate Professor Zeynep Günsür Yüceil and supported by TÜBİTAK 1001, this project invites us to explore the memory of TAL together. In this podcast series, we chat with artists and researchers whose paths have crossed with TAL, while also fondly remembering TAL’s founders, Ayla and Beklan Algan, Erol Keskin, and Haluk Şevket Ataseven.
In the first episode, Sevi Algan, daughter of Ayla and Beklan Algan, actress, and dancer, talks about the process leading up to the founding of TAL.
