Aims & Scope

Women & Performance: a journal of feminist theory seeks scholarly essays on performance, dance, film, new media, and the performance of everyday life from interdisciplinary feminist perspectives.  We encourage dialogues between varied fields of performance scholarship (i.e., performance studies; theatre, dance, and music history and criticism; ethnography; cinema and cultural studies; as well as queer and post-colonial theory), and explore critiques of race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, technology, and nation. 
 
The journal is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual publication with forthcoming special issues on topics as diverse as the role of women in the fluxus art movement, women in international politics, and transbiology.  We encourage general submissions that foreground themes of gender and performance and proposals for special issues that address topics within feminism and performance studies.

About Us:

Women & Performance was founded in 1983 by graduate students in the Department of Performance Studies at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts.  Since its inception the journal has operated as a feminist collective.  After self-publishing for 23 years, Women & Performance was acquired by Routledge, Taylor & Francis.
