The Theatre Times
The Theatre Times (TTT) is an online theatre portal that launched in November 2016.
It has thirty-two thematic sections, more than 140 Regional Managing Editors, and over sixty media partners around the world.[1] The Theatre Times covers theatre in more than 90 countries around the world, with performance reviews and interviews, as well as essays and news stories. It has covered stories about AI, decolonization,[2] the aesthetics of truth, LGBTQ theatre,[3] puppetry,[4] dystopian drama, and war/post-war productions, for example in Tehran.[5]
The Theatre Times hosts Performap, a digital map of global theatre and performance festivals, which was funded through Yale Digital Humanities Lab[6] and LMDA Innovation Grant[7][8] and IOTF – International Online Theatre Festival (IOTF), an annual or bi-annual theatre streaming event.[9][10][11] Since 2019, The Theatre Times and Digital Theatre+ have collaborated on the International Online Theatre Festival.[12][13]
Since 2018, The Theatre Times has been led by its Executive Directors Magda Romanska and Kasia Lech. The former is Professor of Theatre at Emerson College in Boston, MA, and Researcher at metaLAB at Harvard University.[14][15] The latter is Associate Professor of Global Performance History at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands and an Affiliate at metaLAB.[16][17]
