Appel de conférences pour le colloque « The Theatrical Voice. Performing Class, Gender, Race and Identity », University of Surrey (UK), 23-24 mai 2024.

« The theatrical voice has received increasing scholarly attention in the last thirty years, as a result of the musicological shift from texts (the musical score) to performance. At the same time, theatre historians and scholars in literary, sound and media studies have also increasingly focused on the voice of stage artists and the power of the theatrical voice in shaping ideas of gender, race, class, citizenship and cultural identities. After all, the use of the human voice is absolutely central in theatrical settings, from spoken theatre through popular music genres to opera.

Recognising the relevance of the theatrical voice to the wider socio-cultural contexts it inhabits and shapes, our conference provides a platform for early-career researchers, postgraduate students and established experts who currently work on this subject from a vast array of disciplinary areas. »
