New Theatre Quarterly provides a vital international forum where theatrical scholarship and practice can meet and where prevailing dramatic assumptions can be subjected to vigorous critical questioning. It shows that theatre history has a contemporary relevance, that theatre studies need a methodology and that theatre criticism needs a language. The journal publishes news, analysis, debate and  expansion of vision and theatre practice in all its forms within the field of theatre and performance studies, and interdisciplinary  and cross‐cultural research with a theatre/performance focus.
