About the journal
TDR focuses on performances in their social, economic, and political contexts. With an emphasis on experimental, avant-garde, intercultural, and interdisciplinary performance, TDR covers dance, theatre, performance art, visual art, popular entertainment, media, sports, rituals, and performance in politics and everyday life. Long known as the basic resource for keeping up with performance studies in all aspects, TDR continues to be a lively forum of debate on important performances in every medium, setting, and culture.
Each fully-illustrated issue includes:
- articles on theatre, dance, popular entertainments, rituals, and other genres of performance
- original contributions to performance theory
- editorial comments and reports on performances and books
- articles by social scientists, theorists, artists, and critics
- interviews with performers, choreographers, directors, and performance artists
- texts of performance works
- translations of important new and decisive archiva writing on performance

Subject Matter
TDR is about performance in any of its many aspects: theatre, dance, music, film, video, rituals, play, sports, performance in everyday life. We publish accounts of particular performances, theoretical articles that draw on many different kinds of performances, articles on the works of individual artists, performance and book criticism, ethnographic accounts, polemics, and manifestos. We are actively intercultural, interdisciplinary, and progressive; we favor writing about experimental performances, performances with political or social relevance, and performance from various parts of the world. We are not interested in drama as such-the analysis of play texts with no reference to their actual life in performance. The best way to measure the scope of TDR is to look at recent issues.
