LEMDO Classroom
Welcome!
The LEMDO Classroom is a mini-anthology of plays that are currently being used in
classrooms or rehearsal halls. The plays may not have been peer reviewed and are not
ready for publication in any other LEMDO anthology. Testing texts and critical paratexts
via classroom and rehearsal-hall use is a key part of LEMDOʼs process. Feedback from
students and theatre practitioners — a form of peer review — helps editors and anthology
leads improve the edition and its component parts before it is made permanently available.
Editions currently in the LEMDO Classroom are:
Mucedorus, being used at the University of Victoria in Dr. Janelle Jenstadʼs ENSH 352 course
(Fall 2023)
