History

The journal was established in 1949 as the Educational Theatre Journal and obtained its current name in 1979.[3] The American Educational Theatre Association intended the journal to serve the field of educational theatre and drama in a manner similar to how the Quarterly Journal of Speech and Publications of the Modern Language Association of America served the fields of speech and modern languages respectively.[4] The founding Editor-in-Chief was Barnard Hewitt (University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign). Other past editors include Sue-Ellen Case, Susan Bennett, and Jean Graham-Jones.[5]
