“Encountering the Threshold” invites scholars, practitioners, and artists to reflect on moments of passage, suspension, and transformation.
This year’s FOOT Conference with its theme “Encountering the Threshold” will be held on February 5 and 6, 2026 at the Helen Gardiner Phelan Playhouse at 79 St. George Street.
“Encountering the Threshold” invites scholars, practitioners, and artists to reflect on moments of passage, suspension, and transformation. In both performance and global scholarship, thresholds resonate as spaces between memory and futurity, rupture and renewal, where oppositions meet and new meanings emerge. FOOT34 offers a forum to pause, to engage critically, and to imagine how performance might reshape our relation to the present.
