Harm's Way revisited:
Reflections at Digital Spaces at
The Crossroads of Theater-Making
and Pedagogical Practices
While it may be too soon to historicize, archive and re-perform the 'practice turn' in Theatre and Performance Studies, this paper responds to trends in 21st century academia, where a surplus of documentation-as-data is deployed in an effort to legitimize a form of knowledge production which is experiential, multisensory and not always best articulated through traditional academic writing formats. I will suggest a blueprint for connecting theatre practice, vis-à- vis the residue from both process and product, to a reflective writing practice that provides an approach to articulating practice-led research to practitioners and non-practitioners alike.
