Association for Theatre in Higher
Education
Religion and Theatre Focus Group
We are a group of scholars and artists whose work broadens and deepens an exciting and rigorous discourse
surrounding the performative practices of spiritual belief.
We advocate for the serious study of points of intersection of religion/ spirituality and theatre/ performance.
We challenge preconceptions about the place of belief in theatre and performance studies.
We champion uncensored critical discussion of religion in the public sphere.
Titles mentioned as part of an essential religion and theatre bibliography, from a working session at RT's 2008 pre-conference. A work in progress, subject to evolution.
