<p class=MsoNormal>*<b>NEW</b>* CATR Conference Seminar sponsored by the Women’s
Caucus<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Abstracts are invited on the topic of “In-between or
Intermedial Theatre Practices that address the performance of Sexualized
Identities in Canada Theatre today.” It uses intermediality in the
broadest sense, as not necessarily involving technology, but as being
“about changes in theatre practice and thus about changing perceptions of
performance, which become visible through the process of staging”
(Chapple and Kattenbelt , <i>Intermediality in Theatre and Performance</i>,
12). Abstracts dealing with a range of theatrical practices that create the
in-between spaces where spectators, performers, and various media intersect in
ways which lead to potential transformations of our conceptual frameworks
regulating our beliefs about sexual identity formation. Abstracts could
reference performance artists, play scripts, stage productions that offer the
potential for this kind of analysis. They should speculate on what their
examples of intermedial performance bring to the discourse today and what
possibilities they open up for creating in-between spaces in the future of
Canadian theatre. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Registration in the seminar will ideally be limited to 12
participants. The seminar will meet as a working group in Montreal for a 3 hour
session. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Send abstracts of 200 words with a short bio to <a
href="mailto:Rosalind.Kerr@ualberta.ca">Rosalind.Kerr@ualberta.ca</a>. Deadline
for submissions is February 20, 2010.<o:p></o:p></p>
