About Us
Beyond Boundaries, in addition to being an assignment for Theatre and Visual Culture, is a space of critical reflection and dialogue with the world around us. Through this site we aim to explore artistic and social issues, to appreciate nuance, to grow individually, and to connect thoughtfully with one another. This blog will be a culmination of graduate and undergraduate experience, compiled carefully and respectfully into opinion pieces, essays, and other media. Through conscious and intentional analysis and conversation, we hope to move beyond socially and politically construed boundaries and to better understand ourselves and our world.
