Excited to reveal the theme and CFP for our 2023 special issue: "Citation." As Annabel L. Kim once quipped “Everybody cites.” Our question is, from Broadway to the classroom, how does theatre cite?

Reach out to @ShawyerS and @slmwalsh

Just found out that my @TheatreTopics piece, “A Nonbinary Actor Prepares (for Battle),” is on a syllabus at a college I was too intimidated to apply to in high school.

They are going to be teaching emerging TGNC artists my work.

I am stunned and so grateful. 💜
