Dramaturgy is the study of composition and representation of drama on the theatrical stage; can also refer to the practice of adapting a text for the stage. Usually distinct from playwriting, dramaturgy encompasses all the onstage elements that make up a play, including script, choreography, and scenography. Departing from conventional theatre production, Jess Watkin outlines how disability dramaturgy further broadens the bounds of theatre, considering how care practices can be extended “onstage, backstage, and in the audience.”
