performance ethnography journal

A performance ethnography journal is a type of academic publication that documents research about how people express their culture through performance—such as dance, rituals, storytelling, or theater. It combines both written analysis and descriptions of actual performances to explore cultural meanings and social dynamics. This approach helps researchers understand how communities convey their identities and values through artistic expressions, offering insights into their traditions and everyday life. Essentially, it’s a specialized way of capturing and analyzing cultural practices that involve expressive, performative acts.
