A colloquium funded by a collaborative research grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities April 29-30, 2022
“Recovering Black Performance”, April 29-30, 2022, is an international colloquium that recovers the voices and creations of Black performers whose talents nourished Iberia’s Golden Age of theater, which unfolded from circa 1490 to circa 1800. The cultural contributions of Blacks in Portugal, Spain, and colonial Latin America—long concealed in the margins—will be front and center in four sessions of research papers, a roundtable on teaching, and a performance of music of the Hispanic baroque by La Boz Galana. All sessions are free and open to the public. Advance registration and compliance with Yale University visitor policies required.

Location: Humanities Quadrangle, #276, 320 York Street
