This episode is part two of the Queer Archival Praxis Roundtable series of conversations with theatre historians, artists, and educators.
Pedagogy in Process host Nicolas Shannon Savard, Kelly Aliano, Keenan Shionylan, and Ben Gillespie explore the questions:
What are the different ways queerness has emerged and/or been defined in the time periods and locations we study? How have the constraints of existing archives caused (invited? necessitated?) what Jack Halberstam calls “queer failure”? Where do we see queer possibility in the archive? Their conversation offers a range of queer interventions for scholars and students of performance and history alike.

This conversation was recorded at the 2023 Association for Theatre in Higher Education Conference and co-sponsored by the LGBTQ+, American Theatre and Drama Society, and Theatre History Focus Groups.

Pedagogy in Process—a podcast by and for educators working at the intersections of social justice, the arts, and the humanities.
