Thanks Audrey for the link. 

A question for all of us interested in Canadian Theatre practice and scholarly practices related to it:

When I clicked on a particular article I was interested in, it took me to the site where it seems that article alone would cost 13 $  to download in PDF form ( and in American dollars) which seems to me a steep price for an article ( financially and culturally ...paying in us funds???)

I did find that I could pay in funds Canadian by clicking on another link, but that seemed only to apply to purchasing a subscription ($45 in good old loonies)  -- but this itself seems a curious form of negative choice subscription tactics. Why is it that one can download single songs via iTunes or likeliness servers for reasonably pro-rated fees ( and in the currency of ones own country) but not so with articles from the venerable CANADIAN Theatre Review?

While the relationship between cultural memory and theatre has been addressed extensively— particularly in Canada—questions of how the dynamics and mechanics of memory inform and act on creative strategies in Canadian dance, performance, and theatre have rarely been raised.

In these projects — and in these articles — simplistic and outdated understandings of memory are challenged and split open by practices that are acutely aware of memory as a complex process that affects artists and audiences in multiple ways. These essays and performance documents offer inspiration to imagine what both artistic and scholarly exploration of memory in theatre, performance, and dance can lead to in terms of creative strategies and understandings of how performance acts.
