The Philadelphia Theatre Research Symposium is seeking abstracts for papers for our 12th Annual gathering of theatre scholars. This year's theme is "Community Outreach and the Arts." PTRS is seeking papers which engage a broad range of topics in theatre and drama studies including, but not limited to:
- Theatre for social change

- Documentary and Ethnodrama
- Site-specific and community based devising practices
- Race, gender, and representation in community based theatre practices

Abstracts of 250 words or less should be submitted along with a brief bio to PTRSVillanova@gmail.com.

The goal of the Philadelphia Theatre Research Symposium is to provide a forum for theatre scholars and practitioners to share their research and work in order to enter into a dialogue about current trends in theatrical practice and scholarship.
