The recording of our first Fall 2026 LuceSEA Webinar Series on Music and Theatrical Traditions in Southeast Asia and Diaspora is now available online. This webinar focuses on the rich diversity of music and theatrical traditions in Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia in western pedagogy. Traditional arts, such as puppetry and music, are diverse and linked to cultural identity in Southeast Asia and have adapted through migration. Scholars on this panel will discuss the current status of the tradition they research and trends of the theatrical and musical forms in Southeast Asia and beyond.
