Phase 2 Initiatives
❖ Working Session at American Society for Theatre Research Conference 2024: Intersecting Time Zones, A Dramaturgical Approach to Theatre Histories. Professors, scholars and theatre practitioners generate content modules to facilitate opportunities for undergraduate students to recognize and reflect on the intersecting time zones of theatre.
❖ Content modules will create opportunities for students to identify and distinguish between: (1) details about the theatrical event or topic from the past, (2) the discursive context that informs the historian’s documentation of that event, and (3) the ways theatre artists and practitioners continue to help that historical practice teem with new life.
