Abstract

The article focuses on a new Special Section of Performing Ethos: An International Journal of Ethics in Theatre & Performance, titled "Performance as Witness, Memory and Resistance in Times of War." This section aims to provide a platform for artists, performers, and scholars from regions affected by war and genocide, emphasizing the importance of their voices in creating amidst adversity. It highlights how performance can serve as a vital act of witnessing, preserving memory, and resisting oppression, particularly in contexts where life and culture are threatened. The article also includes a call for contributions that explore these themes through various formats, such as scholarly articles and multimedia submissions. [Extracted from the article]
