Research

​

Jayne is currently completing doctoral research at the University of Bristol. Focusing on Brecon's theatre scene in the 18th and 19th centuries, Jayne's research explores the following areas:

  1. Re-telling histories to re-frame and re-focus the importance of the ‘provincial’

  2. Re-focusing historiography on women's experiences and legacy

  3. Exploring models of practice which enable community engagement with heritage
