In 2025, the TaPRA Annual Conference will be hosted by the University of Warwick. We will celebrate to important landmarks: TaPRA’s 20th Anniversary and the 50th birthday of Theatre and Performance Studies at Warwick.

The Call For Papers will be released in January 2025. For any urgent questions, please contact: TaPRA2025@warwick.ac.uk

It will be a hybrid event, facilitating participation by online delegates alongside those attending in person. Since our conference in 2021, we have been able to experience many benefits of online conferencing, such as increased opportunity for international presenters, lower financial costs to participate, greater accessibility for those with caring responsibilities, etc.

The conference programme will include:

• Curated panels and keynotes for the whole conference
• Parallel meetings of 13 working groups
• Open Panels hosted by working groups
• TaPRA Practice as Research gallery
• Events for ECR and PGR
• TaPRA prizes announcements

In-person delegates will also be able to attend:

• An opening event and reception
• Artist-led activities and events
• Publishers’ stands
• Conference dinner
