23 ATHE focus groups represent various areas of interest in theatre arts and studies. These groups offer members a direct way of getting involved in ATHE around issues of common concern.

All focus groups offer programming at the annual conference and throughout the year. Some also offer newsletters, workshops, additional meetings and symposia, E-mail discussions, and other means of networking and advocating for their particular interest areas.

The Focus Groups also elect representatives who work with the Governing Council to shape administrative policies for the organization.

As an ATHE member, there is no limit to the number of focus groups with which you may affiliate.
