Lecturer in Contemporary Theatre and Digital Practices
The role

The Department of Theatre is seeking to appoint a Lecturer in 
Contemporary Theatre and Digital Practices as part of the School of 
Arts’ digital arts growth strategy and to develop and expand digital 
practice offerings in Theatre. The new role will augment the digital 
teaching and research expertise in the Department. The post will be a 
full-time, open-ended contract to commence in September 2021 or as soon 
as possible thereafter.



The School of Arts and Department of Theatre have an excellent research 
reputation, and Theatre is thriving, fast-growing, highly creative and 
has a very strong teaching ethos. It is located in the Wickham Building, 
which boasts two flexible, well-equipped studio theatres, rehearsal 
rooms, design and costume workshops, and lecture and seminar rooms. We 
share the building with the Theatre Collection, a designated museum and 
archive of theatre and performance with over 140 named collections and 
archives. Staff in the Department have expertise in an array of genres, 
histories, and practices, including theatre history, historic and 
contemporary performance practices, audience studies, performance 
studies, dramaturgy and adaptation.

What will you be doing?

You will contribute to the development of theatre and digital practices 
in teaching and research, disseminating your research through 
publication, live or online presentation and/or performance and submit 
grants for research funding. You will contribute to and develop the 
Department’s teaching at all levels, developing new course units in 
digital theatres and contributing your digital expertise to augment 
existing courses. You will be expected to provide academic and pastoral 
support and guidance to students and to contribute to the administrative 
functioning of the department as appropriate.

You should apply if

You have a PhD in Theatre involving digital practices/performance, or 
immersive theatre/interactive theatres, or a related digital field and 
have, or are developing, a strong track record of research in digital 
practices, eg, digital and mediated theatre, performance and the 
digital, immersive theatres, applied or participatory theatre and the 
digital.  You have experience in teaching in the HE sector, and 
experience, or capacity for designing and leading units and programmes. 
You are an excellent, collaborative team player.
