This two-year master’s program offers students a broad-based approach to the study of performance, expanding a traditional focus on the aesthetic practices of theater and dance to include cultural performances such as gender performativity, Civil Rights activism, and street begging in early modern Europe. Under the broad umbrella of performance, students are invited to explore the mutual engagement of aesthetic and cultural performance practices across history, around the globe, and between disciplines, drawing on a variety of theoretical approaches to illuminate the complex meanings generated by and through performance. For more information, visit pad.artsci.wustl.edu/graduate. Please recommend our program to your most promising students! Application deadline is January 15th
