The current issue is a double issue. Volume 5, number 4 (November 2009) is a general issue with essays on Central Park Rumba Cabildo Politics, Writing & Walking, and Urban Experience; a "talk opera"; an interview with artist Cynthia Hopkins, a set of poems, and a book review. Volume 5, number 5 (November 2009) is a special issue On Hospitality, composed of 10 contributions of essays, poetry, and performances.

In addition to regular contributions, we continue to seek contributions for our new section of shorter analyses of current events and timely issues called "The Limn." We will also start publishing letters to the editor in volume 6.

Liminalities is an open-access peer-reviewed journal for performance studies, theory and praxis. Our goal is to embrace the possibilities for presenting performance studies work by exploring and exploiting the "staging" potential of digital media. We publish essays, aesthetic works, digital media projects, documentaries, book reviews, interviews, and works about pedagogy & performance. Follow the journal information link for information about submitting projects and essays to Liminalities, and for information regarding our board of reviewers.

Liminalities.blog is for performance studies news, announcements, events, calls, and other items of interest. Email the editor (editor at liminalities dot net) if you would like to post an item there.
