CTR 156/Fall 2013 "Archives"<http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/canadian_theatre_review/toc/ctr.156.html>
Edited by Kathryn Harvey and Jenn Stephenson

This issue looks at the unique characteristics of performing arts archives, the challenges of archivists working in them, and the challenges of researchers using them. Articles in this issue will address collaborations between archives and theatre companies; archives as themselves sites of theatre; the archive's relationship to theatre's liveness; digital archives, oddities in the theatrical archive (e.g. script marginalia); and post-colonial transformations of archival knowledge.
