Abstract

After a decade of finding dramaturgical support in a Critical Response process created by choreographer Liz Lerman, the directors of Jump-Start Performance Co., a community-based, multi-disciplinary theatre company in San Antonio, have suggested that all upcoming productions include a single dramaturg. The change acknowledges the weaknesses of the previous method, and yet does not dismiss with it altogether. This article argues that by crafting the dramaturg's role within the framework of Lerman's process, the company has fashioned a dramaturgical role unique to its definition and practice and made probable the likelihood of continued theorizing and alteration.
