Aktuelles: 2025 | 5.-6. Juni "Queer Theater against the State"

This conference seeks to explore the paths that queer theater companies, directors, and playwrights across the world have taken throughout the twentieth- and twenty-first centuries to speak queerness to power against normative orders of gender and sexuality. Darkened theater rooms across the planet have been one site of many, where queerness has come to be negotiated vis-à-vis authoritarian regimes, conservative governments, and religious ideologies. This conference sets out to map such theater spaces across the globe, historicize and contextualize them, while also examining their generative potential for critical theory.
