Call for Performance Paradigm Journal Editor Positions: Deputy Editor, Book Review Editor, Performance Review Editor
Performance Paradigm is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal—now in its 15th year—that focuses on the theatre, performance and visual art, with a particular interest in work from the Asia-Pacific region. The journal spotlights new paradigms in performance and performance research through articles, interviews and reviews. It is published annually in themed issues.
Founded in 2005, the journal has published issues on everything from trauma (2009) to happiness (2011), Singapore (2012) to Japan (2006). More recently, it has published issues on “Performance, Politics, and Non-Participation” (2018), “Performance, Choreography and the Gallery” (2017, with guest editors Erin Brannigan and Hannah Mathews), “Performance, Technology, and Intimacy” (2016, with guest editor Anna Scheer), and “Staging Real People” (2015, guest-edited by Ulrike Garde and Meg Mumford). Currently edited by Caroline Wake (University of New South Wales) and Emma Willis (University of Auckland), we are looking for people who want to make an important contribution to theatre and performance studies, help to upgrade the website, and increase the impact of the journal.
Deputy Editor
Nominations and applications are invited for the position of Deputy Editor of Performance Paradigm. Ideally, this will be a four-year appointment: the Deputy Editor will serve a two-year term beginning March 2020, followed by a two-year term as Editor from March 2022 to March 2024.
