Theater in Greece and Rome (TIGR) is seeking 3 reader/actors to participate in the upcoming TIGR performance at the 2026 Annual Meeting of CAMWS (Mobile, AL, March 11-14). This production will be a script-in-hand reading of a work-in-progress adaptation of a new production of Sophocles' Philoctetes. This project is developed by Theater and Classics professors at Carleton College and features new original music by modern Homeric bard Joe Goodkin (the composer of the acclaimed "Blues of Achilles"). This adaptation will provide new insight into a relevant yet under-staged Greek tragedy: we are particularly interested in enhancing the audience engagement and getting feedback before our first show at Carleton College. Scripts will be provided for review and familiarity in advance. We will have a read through on Wednesday, March 11th as well as some practice time on Thursday, March 12th depending on people's conference schedules. Depending on perfomers' availability, there may be a couple of Zoom sessions in advance of the CAMWS meeting itself. The performance itself will take place on Thursday, March 12th at 8:30pm. For more information or to volunteer for this exciting mayhem, please email Cecilia Cozzi ([email protected]).

Call for Papers for 2026 Spring Conference Series - Antiquity in Media

Antiquity in Media Studies (AIMS) seeks proposals for a new monthly conference series, running on the last weekend of every month from February through April 2026: February 28-March 1, March 28-29, and April 25-26. The AIMS virtual conference series remains free and open to all, and welcomes proposals on any topic related to the reception of the ancient Mediterranean world in modern media.

For the AIMS 2026 monthly conference series, we invite various formats for the presentation of research, pedagogy, and creative responses to the reception of Mediterranean antiquity, including but not limited to: individual 20-minute papers, three-paper panels, roundtables, workshops, poster sessions, lightning sessions, play-throughs, live multiplayer games, technical demonstrations, creative showcases, creator interviews, and other activities that can fit within a 60-90-minute time slot and be delivered remotely at this online conference series. With conference events spread across three months, presenters will choose their preferred presentation day.

The AIMS conference series is held online using a mixture of live and pre-recorded elements. Note: 20-minute paper presentations are pre-recorded and circulated prior to the live presentation day. This hybrid format accommodates as many participants as possible, regardless of geographic location/time zone, professional rank, access to travel funds, mobility impairment, and other factors implicated in the traditional conference format. We welcome proposals from all scholarly ranks, including early-career scholars, independent scholars, as well as working professional craftspeople/artists. We invite scholars from marginalized groups, along with people who traditionally have been able to participate in academic activities with relative ease. Our conference committee remains our Board of Directors and all members of the DEI committee. This group reviews proposals and assists with scheduling conference events.

There will be two deadlines for proposals: priority and regular. The priority deadline will be January 9, 2026; presenters can expect to be notified by January 23, 2026. For any remaining slots, the regular deadline will be January 30, 2026; presenters can expect to be notified by February 9, 2026. In keeping with AIMS’ ethos of promoting accessibility, it is our regular practice to allow the chance for presenters to revise and resubmit their conference proposal before a final decision is made.
