*Call for Papers, Performances and Artistic Works*

*Festival of Original Theatre (FOOT)*

*Queer(ing) Performance*

*February 5-7, 2015*

The 23rd annual Festival of Original Theatre (FOOT) invites proposals to
our 2015 conference: *Queer(ing) Performance*. Considering the performance
of everyday life, as well as the staged, digital, and imagined, FOOT 2015
subverts rigid disciplinary boundaries between scholarship, practice and
politics. This year’s conference not only welcomes papers on queer
productions, but also work that engages queers methodologies. We invite
proposals from activists, academics and artists who question, contest and
revolt against scholarly and theatrical norms.

Acknowledging the ways in which queer theory, alongside many traditional
theatre approaches, has privileged white able-bodied, cisgender male
subjects, FOOT 2015: Queer(ing) Performance opens up the conversation to
consider the multiple intersecting experiences and practices of a range of
marginalized populations. FOOT 2015 questions broad applications of queer
methodologies to performance through diverse conversations on
postcolonialism, crip studies, critical race theory and feminisms.

FOOT 2015 invites proposals for presentations of papers, workshops,
readings and performances from scholars, activist and artists in the
following areas:

   - Queer(ing) normative LGBT Theatre and Performance
   -  Queering conceptions of spatiality & temporality in performance
   - Confronting Scriptocentrism: Oral history, storytelling and spoken
   word performance
   - Activism, social justice, and grass-roots performance
   - Queer indigenous studies and performance
   - Trans politics and identities onstage and/or in everyday life
   -  Regulation and Policing of Nonnormative performance
   - Manifestations of a turn towards the wild on stage
   - Drag, Burlesque and Cabaret
   -  Queering Nostalgia, Memory and Theatre History
   -  Performing Queer/Feminist ideologies in everyday life

Recognizing the inextricable link between performance scholarship and
artistic creation, FOOT 2015 provides an outlet for diverse voices to
contribute to discussions on performance studies and theatre creation from
a queer standpoint. As queer(ing) theatre necessitates an open and flexible
understanding of the field of performance, we welcome nontraditional
proposals and formats for papers, film screenings and performances.

Application Deadline: *September 15, 2014*

Please send a 300-word abstract or description of your artistic work, as
well as a short bio to:  *foot.graddrama em utoronto.ca
