ArtsPraxis Volume 10, Issue 2
Volume 10, Issue 2 looked to engage members of the global Educational Theatre community in dialogue around current research and practice. The call for papers was released in conjunction with the release of ArtsPraxis Volume 10, Issue 1.
The submission deadline for Volume 10, Issue 2 was October 1, 2023.
Submissions fell under the following category:
Collective Visioning: New Areas of Inquiry and Discovery in Educational Theatre
Key questions submissions addressed included:
What role do drama and theatre play in community spaces?
What strategies have you found to be useful in catalyzing connection and change?
What communities have been overlooked in educational theatre practices, and what can teaching artists do to fill those gaps?
What patterns and trends in equity, diversity, inclusion, access, and justice research are you noticing and how might these strengthen your teaching practice?
What does the new generation of audiences look like, and how can we continuously adapt our practice with updated research and findings?
How do we nurture young artists? How do we nurture early career teaching artists?
How does the discipline of educational theatre hold space for collective visioning and radical imagining?
Where do you see educational theater serving as a tool for change, advocacy, and praxis?
We encouraged article submissions from interdisciplinary artists, educators, and scholars engaged in work associated with these topics. Our goal was to motivate a dialogue among a wide variety of practitioners and researchers that would enrich the development of educational theatre in the coming years.
