Submission Guidelines

The Journal of American Drama and Theatre welcomes submissions. Our aim is to promote research on theatre of the Americas and to encourage historical and theoretical approaches to plays, playwrights, performances, and popular theatre traditions. Manuscripts should be prepared in conformity with the Chicago Manual of Style, using endnotes (rather than footnotes). We request that articles be submitted as e-mail attachments, using Microsoft Word format. Please note that all correspondence will be conducted by e-mail. Please allow three to four months for a decision, as all articles will be sent out for peer review. Our e-mail address is jadtjournal@gmail.com. You may also address editorial inquiries to the Editors, JADT/Martin E. Segal Theatre Center, CUNY Graduate Center, 365 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10016-4309.
