Applied Drama by Juliana Saxton

Applied Drama by Juliana Saxton

Applied drama is pedagogical practice. Suitable for facilitators and teaching artists working with the dramatic process in diverse community settings, this title is crafted for use in schools, classrooms, community groups, healthcare organizations, and all manner of social institutions.

'A clearly arranged and informative handbook'

-- Theater Forschung, DrNathalie Fratini

'Prendergast and Saxton's latest book is a long-awaited response to the training needs of those who take their first steps as facilitators of interactive and participatory drama with non-professional actors. ' 

-- Hristina Mouratidou, The Journal for Drama in Education

'[T]he strength of Applied Drama as a handbook for applied drama facilitation lies in its candid treatment of vital processes and issues such as embodied learning, ethics, reflection, communication and improvisation. By exploring the key concepts in the field of applied drama and illustrating them through practical drama structures, the work becomes a balanced blend of both theory and practice. Consequently, teachers and students at various levels of learning and young people’s theatre facilitators will find the book enormously useful.' 

-- Keneth Bamuturaki, Consciousness, Literature and the Arts
