Scholars have also explored the transnational reception of the corpus\, its translation\ , and its adaptation. This focus on performance and transnational receptio n has changed our understanding of the corpus\, as of individual plays wit hin it\, by foregrounding questions of ideology and canonicity\, situatedn ess and transformation.\n\nBuilding on the efforts of UCLA’s Working Gro up on the Comedia in Translation and Performance and its Diversifying the Classics initiative\, the Center &\; Clark’s year-long core program “Resituating the Comedia” explores new contexts for Hispanic classical theater. In addition to presenting new research\, the program will provid e an opportunity for practitioners to encounter new plays and for working translators to share methodologies and interact with practitioners.\n\nTwo conferences\, along with two roundtables with local scholars and practiti oners\, will highlight and examine the new comedia studies with an emphasi s on performance and transnational reception.\n\nThe first conference\, “Making Classics: Canonicity and Performance\,” will address these que stions: How does comedia fit within current conceptualizations of the thea ter canon and its classics? How does performance transform the canon\, whe ther by highlighting new works or re-envisioning them?\n\nThis conference is held in conjunction with LA Escena 2020\, a virtual festival of Hispani c classical theater presented online from November 12–16\, 2020.
