Theatre Dance and Performance Training (TDPT) is a brand new, twice-yearly, peer-reviewed journal which acts as a research forum for practitioners, academics, creative artists and pedagogues interested in training in all its complexity. The journal is dedicated to revealing the vital and diverse processes of training and their relationship to performance making both past and present, a diversity reflected in the journal's international scope and interdisciplinary form and focus.

TDPT acts as an outlet for documenting and analysing primary materials relating to regimes of performer training as well as encouraging discursive contributions in a range of critical and creative formats.

TDPT provides a valuable meeting-point for practitioner-researchers wanting to know more about training before, beneath, beyond and within performance.
