Shanghai Theater Academy Winter Institute

Co-sponsored by Brown, NYU, Princeton, and Yale Universities.
Scholars, practitioners, and students from the US and China will be gathering in Shanghai to explore the physical, theoretical, and theatrical geographies of contemporary performance, and to contribute to this city’s ongoing transformation, sharing experiences from other metropolises and other traditions.

This event is not just about Shanghai. It’s about the macrocosmic shifts and potentials coming to light here on this unusual stage.

The two-week intensive program will take place from January 5 - January 20, 2010. It is the first program of its kind in the history of the People's Republic of China.
