Aims and Scope

Studies in Musical Theatre is a peer-reviewed journal and the first academic periodical in this area. We would like to invite contributions that explore any aspect of the musical on-stage or on-screen. For example:

opera, music theatre and musical theatre;
archival and production research;
narratives of the musical stage ;
historiographical perspectives;
musicological and dramaturgical approaches;
performance and performance practice;
approaches to training and the industry;
the fusion of words and music;
the use of music and song within ‘straight’ theatre;
paralinguistics and rhetorical expression;
negotiating the art/entertainment divide;
the academic study of musical theatre.

The journal also welcomes contributions from recognized practitioners in the field, which may include writers, directors, MDs, performers, coaches, etc.
