We invite your paper if it addresses the new convergences of sociology and theatre. Perhaps you study on processes and institutions such as activism, community-building, and education, where theatre is making new kinds of contributions. Perhaps you look at scripts as exemplars of changing tendencies in social and political thought, actors as workers in a new economy, the tradition of live performance as a means of challenging our altering sociality. You may take up Goffman’s (1959) The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life in order to offer fresh critiques or innovative defenses of his dramaturgical model. You might not want to present your paper, but rather, to perform it. (These are just a few suggestions from the prompter’s box.)
