Overview
The PhD in Theatre (Theatre and Performance of the Americas) at Arizona State University trains scholars to examine cultural performance from a hemispheric point of view, with a focus on the histories, theories and practices associated with such performances.
Features
Through coursework, seminars, research and study opportunities, doctoral students work from diverse critical perspectives that mobilize thought across geographical and disciplinary borders.
They develop skills to reexamine and interrogate the canon of theatre as text and as performance, expanding the traditional boundaries of theatre studies in two ways:
- via a perspective that considers the shared histories and practices of theatre and performance in the Americas as central to an intervention in traditionally narrated histories and theories of theatre
- via the methodologies of cultural and performance studies that accommodate other forms of embodied expression related to but distinct from formal theatrical expression.
