Regional performing arts: theory, practice and policy

SCU和NORPA将合作研究和开发一个新的音乐剧作品，利用当地的洪水经验来探索更广泛的普遍主题；举办以这个主题为主题的视觉作品展览；准备一卷关于这个主题的文章；主持一个关于音乐戏剧理论的会议，并将论文发表在一本哲学文集中；制定澳大利亚地区的表演艺术政策。

SCU and NORPA will collaborate to: research and develop a new music-theatre piece using local experiences of floods to explore broader universal themes; mount an exhibition of visual works on this theme; prepare a volume of essays on the theme; host a conference on theories of music-theatre and publish the papers in a philosophical volume; and develop policy on the performing arts in regional Australia. The project will bring together leading practitioners and theoreticians to develop a long-term strategic research and development alliance. It will involve local, Australian and overseas academics and practitioners.
