The journal frequently publishes special issues. Recent examples include guest-edited special issues on Tim Crouch, Martin Crimp, race and race-blind casting, performance and activism, performance and the electoral process, editing, the London 2012 Olympics, live art in the UK, and site-specificity.
As well as research articles, the journal publishes book reviews, and makes space for production notes, designs, manifestos, and interviews by emergent and established theatre-makers, which are collected in a "Documents" section. Meanwhile, the journal's "Backpages" section presents a more expansive view of theatre and performance. The journal's website offers "Interventions", responding to current developments in the field and extending discussions from the print journal through a variety of writing formats and multimedia.
