TDR is the journal of performance studies. A forum for radical performance and theoretical intervention, TDR engages performance in its aesthetic, historical, social, economic, political, and theoretical contexts. The disciplinary zone of performance is conceived broadly – dance, theatre, music, visual arts, sound, architecture, media, everyday events, sports – emphasizing the experimental, the critical, and the provocative.
An Ask from TDR's Editors
TDR needs your help. We no longer get money from the National Endowment for the Arts and the New York State Council on the Arts. They supported TDR for decades. NYU and our Consortium Institutions support TDR, but not enough to make up what we've lost. To continue publishing professionally edited work, TDR needs money. As the only performance arts/performance studies journal with a high level of hands-on editing, TDR has launched many younger scholars and honed the writing of established scholars. Please send what you can. No amount is too small. And for sure, no amount is too big. It's all tax deductible. Donate here...and thank you.
