Drama and Education is the comprehensive textbook for teachers and students on Applied Theatre and Theatre and Education courses. As well as a historical and theoretical overview of the field, it provides rationale and techniques for three specific methodologies: Linear Drama, Process-Oriented/In-Role Drama, and Drama for Social Change. Each approach is supplemented with sample lesson plans, activities, ideas for differentiation, and extensive bibliographies. The topics are discussed from five key angles: Historical and theoretical foundations; Curricular applications; Practical toolkits for a range of classrooms and learning environments; Different strategies for lesson plans; Extension options for longer workshops. Alongside these core methods, the integration of other innovative forms - from performance art to Theatre of the Oppressed - into drama-based learning is explored, as well as the pragmatic concerns such as funding applications, advocacy, and planning partnerships.

This unique edition is the result of the second International Theatre for Young Audiences Research Network (ITYARN) conference that was held in Malmoe, Sweden, in May 2011 as part of the XVIIth ASSITEJ World Congress and Festival. In fifteen essays that are illustrative of the wide variety as well as of the many opportunities for research in TYA, this book covers six continents, includes quantitative, qualitative, ethnographic/action, and historiographical methods, and highlights critical theory, philosophical discourse, play analysis, and other approaches. The essays deal with a broad range of issues, including representation, cultural contexts, questions of identity, race-, class-, and gender theory, notions of child and childhood, aesthetics, and the influence of media and dominant ideologies. ITYARN aims to further research in the field of theatre for young audiences to contextualize and theorize the lively artistic products for children and youth globally. It is the research network of ASSITEJ, the International Association of Theatre for Children and Youth, which co-produced this publication.
