'Kia whakatōmuri te haere whakamua.I walk backwards into the future with my eyes fixed on my past
'Welcome to issue 84 of Australasian Drama Studies where we mark the transition to a new Editorial team: Co-Editors Nicola Hyland and Sarah Woodland, and Editorial Assistant Jonno Graffam-O’Meara. We would like to acknowledge and thank Yoni Prior for her exceptional leadership over the past twelve issues since 2017, and her tire-less commitment to academic rigour, combined with an ethic of care for contributors over the course of her tenure. We also acknowledge the legacy of previous Editors and contributors who have built the quality and reputation of the journal since its establishment in 1982.We reflect on this important history as we look to the future; learning from our Elders and holding the weight of all the words and wisdom of those who have gone before us. We hope we can do them justice.' (Nicola Hyland, Sarah Woodland and Jonathan Graffam-O'Meara: Editorial introduction)
