! Submit your research to Canadian Theatre Review’s upcoming Winter 2028 issue exploring the subject of “Failure” in the Canadian theatre landscape.

The journal invites scholars, artists, and educators to reflect on how failure operates in Canadian theatre: as a barrier, as a catalyst, and as a methodology.

Submissions of scholarly articles, interviews, practitioner reflections, and photo/text collages are welcome. There is space in this issue for performance practitioners to discuss their work, processes, and the wider field. Potential contributors are welcome to contact the guest editors to discuss ideas before submitting.

Canadian Theatre Review is seeking submissions for an upcoming issue exploring “Failure.”

Failure shapes the Canadian theatrical landscape: it can stall projects, limit careers, and constrain institutions—but it can also generate new ideas, methods, and relationships. This issue asks how failure can be understood as both obstacle and strategy in Canadian theatre and performance.
The journal welcomed submissions of scholarly articles; interviews; personal reflections; and photo/text collages. Potential topics include (but are not limited to): failure as creative/learning tool, failure as resistance, institutional and policy failure, curatorial and pedagogical failure, technical failure and emerging technologies, audience development and fundraising, and examples from Canadian theatrical history.

Abstracts are due June 29, 2026. Read the full Call for Papers and submission guidelines here: bit.ly/40tE0m1
