This AHRC-funded research network is led by Dr George Burrows (University of Portsmouth) and Prof Nicholas Gebhardt (Birmingham City University). It brings together an international group of scholars to exchange ideas about connections between musical theatre and jazz in dialogue with practitioners and industry workers. Through these exchanges, the network aims to develop new understandings, practices and works at the intersection of forms.

Our 18-month research network is the first to investigate the connections between musical theatre and jazz. Keep up-to-date on its developments and download resources.
