About JDTC

The Journal of Dramatic Theory and Criticism (JDTC) recently celebrated its 20th anniversary. Founded in 1986 at the University of Kansas by John Gronbeck-Tedesco and Paul Newell Campbell, the Journal publishes full-length articles that contribute to the varied conversations in dramatic theory and criticism, explore the relationship between theory and theatre practice, and/or examine recent scholarship by a single author.

Iris Smith Fischer assumed the current editorship on July 1, 2007. John Gronbeck-Tedesco had served as editor since the Journal's inception and continues to serve as consulting editor. The associate editors and, occasionally, guest editors review submissions.

JDTC is published twice each year by the Department of Theatre & Film and The Joyce and Elizabeth Hall Center for the Humanities.
