Undergraduate Research in Theatre: A Guide for Students supplies
tools for scaffolding research skills alongside examples of
undergraduate research in theatre and performance scholarship. The
book begins with an overview of the necessity of framing theatre as
undergraduate research and responding to calls for revolutionizing
the discipline toward greater equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Dedicated chapters for the research, skills, and methods employed
by each theatre area follow: scripted theatre; devised and new
works; applied theatre; scenic, costume, sound, and lighting
design; and theatre theory and interdisciplinary studies.
Throughout the book, undergraduate research activities are
demonstrated by 36 case studies authored by undergraduates from six
countries about diverse areas of theatre study. Suitable for both
professors and students, Undergraduate Research in Theatre is an
ideal resource for any course that has an opportunity for the
creation of new knowledge or as an essential interdisciplinary
connection between theatre, performance, and other disciplines.

This book investigates how the performing arts in higher education
nationally contribute to the "high impact practices," as identified
by the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AACU).
Using the well-known map of the HIPs for illustrating the
centrality of performing arts practices in higher education, the
editors and authors of this volume call for increased participation
by performing arts programs in general education and campus
initiatives, with specific case studies as a guide. Performing arts
contribute to the efforts of their institution in delivering a
strong liberal arts education that uniquely serves students to meet
the careers of the future. This is the first book to explicitly
link the performing arts to the HIPs, and will result in the
implementation of best practices to better meet the educational
needs of students. At stake is the viability of performing arts
programs to continue to serve students in their pursuit of a
liberal arts education.
