The third biennial conference on the London Stage in the 19th-Century World is taking place online 15-17 April 2021.
The conference, co-organised by Michael Burden (Oxford) and Jo Hicks (Aberdeen), interprets ‘the London Stage’ as inclusively as possible, including such topics as criticism, dance, scenography, genre, theatrical technology, colonial politics, and the staging of the natural environment. This year’s conference has sessions on women writers and performers, visual culture, race and place, and melodrama, among many others.
