The International Federation for Theatre Research (IFTR) Performance and
Consciousness Working Group will be meeting at the next IFTR Conference in
Stockholm, Sweden, 13-17 June 2016. This WG welcomes contributions
pertaining to any aspect of the relationship between performance and
consciousness, particularly, but not necessarily, in relationship to the
conference theme of Presenting the Theatrical Past Interplays of Artefacts,
Discourses and Practices. Papers drawing on themes from performance
theory, cognitive science, phenomenology, actor training, psychology,
and/or theatre history are especially encouraged. The group’s working
language is English. Abstracts of no more than 300 words should be
submitted through the conference website, www.iftr.org./conference
Deadline for receipt of abstracts is 15 January 2016. Notice on acceptance
will be given by 28 February 2016. IFTR offers a limited number of
bursaries, to which you can apply also via the above website in due
course—deadline for applications for bursaries is 1 December 2015. The
application form will be available at www.iftr.org by 30 September. Please
