The PhD in Drama, Theatre and Performance Studies is offered by the Centre for Drama, Theatre and Performance Studies at the University of Toronto, alongside a Master of Arts in the same field. The program's core areas are dramatic theory, dramaturgy and theatre history, with faculty research strength in performance analysis and reception, Canadian, American, feminist and post-colonial theatre, Elizabethan and Restoration staging, and historiography and performance. The degree is research-based, culminating in an original dissertation developed with a faculty supervisor, with the graduate unit and the applicant jointly able to arrange that supervision after admission. Applications for Fall entry close in mid-January. Further detail on program length, tuition and delivery is set out in the Centre's academic calendar entry and department website.
