Excited to reveal the theme and CFP for our 2023 special issue: "Citation." As Annabel L. Kim once quipped “Everybody cites.” Our question is, from Broadway to the classroom, how does theatre cite? Reach out to @ShawyerS and @slmwalsh with further questions!

"Proof of vaccination/Face Mask Required" is now the norm for live performance. How has theatre etiquette changed over time? Research from @TheatreTopics is cited in this history of audience norms in @ConversationUS : theconversation.com/theatre-…

Just found out that my @TheatreTopics piece, “A Nonbinary Actor Prepares (for Battle),” is on a syllabus at a college I was too intimidated to apply to in high school. They are going to be teaching emerging TGNC artists my work. I am stunned and so grateful. 💜

We hope you are having a happy start to the semester. If you are using a @TheatreTopics essay, let us know what you’re using. Also remember to have students download the essay rather than create a PDF so we get a more accurate sense of readership.
