As large publishing institutions continue to cut back on theatre coverage, critics and the theatres they write about are finding new ways to break free from traditional formats. From empowering audiences as journalists, to developing collectives that increase coverage and amplify underrepresented voices, to providing crowd- and community-sourced platforms to ensure robust conversation, this breakout will focus on new platforms and approaches for writing -- and sharing writing -- about the theatre. Do these innovative modes of connectivity, which provide more ways for audiences and artists to access writing about the work while broadening the number of voices that are invited to comment on it, herald a new era in the ecosystem of theatre journalism?
