CRITICAL STAGES IATC WebJournal
The primary aim of Critical Stages/Scènes critiques is to provide an outlet for critical writing that contributes to cutting-edge, international discourse on the theatre.
We welcome articles of varying subject matter and approach as outlined in the journal’s Call for Papers. We publish in June and December (with deadlines on April 15 and October 15).
Attachments
Please submit your article to your Section Editor and to the Editor-in-Chief as an e-mail attachment, double-spaced in MS Word. Articles will typically range from 1500 to 3500 words (10,000 to 20,000 characters including spaces); please check with the Section Editor if the length is not specified in the Call for Papers.

Permission to reprint articles is granted with the requirement to include “First published in Critical Stages,” along with other citation information and the web address of the journal.
Photos
Photos (JPEG) and other types of illustrations are encouraged.
The position of the photo should be designated in the article.
A personal photo and a short biography of the author should be included.
All necessary permissions for images should be provided. These can be in the form of an e-mail from the company, or documentation that you have procured the images from an official website. Note: If the performance the author attended is other than the opening night, please include mention of the actual date in the text itself. General information regarding the production, however, should match the date recorded in national and international databases.
