This Research Approaches Study Day brings together performance studies academics and practitioners to consider the challenges of writing histories of performance and emotion and to explore what strategies and approaches we might uniquely bring to bear on these overlapping projects of past performance and past emotions. This is an open workshop and roundtable which invites participants from music, theatre, dance or other social history backgrounds through history and across performance cultures.
