About

MusicTheatreDance is the flagship journal of the Music Theatre Dance Association.

This free, open-access, peer-reviewed journal will be a multi-disciplinary space for investigations at the intersections of music, theatre, and dance, as well as the intersections of music, theatre, dance, and other disciplines. Seeking to disrupt traditional disciplinary boundaries, this multimodal journal will live online, playing host to both conventional scholarly essays and digital scholarship that takes other forms.
