Dear colleagues and Professors,
CFP : Online Journal.
Romeo and Juliet, From Page to Image
The mythology of Romeo and Juliet is world-famous. Within the Shakespearean canon, it is one of the most performed and adapted plays on the stage and on the page. Contemporary interpretations, whether drawn from illustrators or musicians, actors or scenographers, novelists or poets, YouTubers or performance artists, storytellers or playwrights, have explored and exploited this mythology, conveying new meanings from iconic images, contemporariness from timelessness.
The Texas Theatre Journal is now accepting submissions through May 1, 2018.

Analysis and appreciation of the artistic functions and contributions of sung letters in musical plays and operas. In these days of e mail, Twitter, etc., it can be hard to remember that, at one time, correspondence was done more slowly by letter, and that the reading and/or writing of letters was often an important part of theatrical events. You are invited to submit proposals that explore this phenomenon. 250 word abstracts by 20 March 2018; Mail abstracts to Shoshana Knapp (dashiell@vt.edu).
