Louisiana State University Assistant Professorship in Performance Studies

Deadline:

November 12

Length/Track:

Tenure track

Description:

“The successful candidate will view performance not merely as an object of study, but as a primary methodology and way of knowing. We welcome interpretations of “performance studies” and strongly encourage applications from scholars whose backgrounds may bridge Communication Studies, Theatre, and Interdisciplinary Arts, provided they are committed to experimental, research-driven performance, and to utilizing their hands-on performance experience to drive rigorous academic publication and create original performances in the HopKins Black Box theatre.” “Areas of topical interest are open, but we especially welcome candidates whose work bridges critical performance studies with theatrical practice, which may include:

The performance of identity, embodiment, and power (including intersectional, queer, or decolonial frameworks)”

Devised, experimental, and ensemble-based theatre

Applied theatre, community engagement, and social practice

Experimental directing and dramaturgy

Live art, intermediality, and multimedia performance

Site-specific performance, spatial practices, and public memory

Digital, algorithmic, and virtual performance spaces”
