Applied Theatre, Third Edition
International Case Studies and Challenges for Practice
About This Book
Applied Theatre was the first collection to assist practitioners and students in developing critical frameworks for their own community-based theatrical projects. The editors draw on thirty case studies in applied theatre from fifteen countriesâcovering a wide range of disciplines, from theatre studies to education, medicine, and lawâand collect essential readings to provide a comprehensive survey of the field.
Infused with a historical and theoretical overview of practical theatre, Applied Theatre offers clear developmental approaches and models for practical application.
This third edition offers refreshed case studies from many countries worldwide that provide exemplars for the practice of applied theatre. The book will be useful to both instructors and students, in its focus on providing clear introductory chapters that lay out the scope of the field, dozens of case studies in all areas of the field, and a new chapter on responses to the global pandemic of 2020.
Also includes a new section on representation in its final chapter, looking at the issues of how we represent ourselves and others on stage.
