Critical Themes in Drama is concerned with the relationship between
drama and the current socio-political context. It builds on and
contributes to ongoing scholarly conversations regarding the use,
benefit, challenges and opportunities for drama and theatre as a
social, cultural, educational and political act. The intention of
this book is to canvas current theory and practice in drama, to
provide an extended examination of how drama as a pro-social
practice intersects with socio-cultural institutions, to link
critical discourse and examine ways drama may contribute to a
broader social justice agenda. Authors draw on a variety of
theoretical tools from the fields of sociology, anthropology and
cultural studies. This combines with an exploration of work from
drama practitioners across a variety of countries and practices to
provide a map of how the field is shaped and how we might
understand drama praxis as a social, cultural and political force
for change. This book offers drama scholars, practitioners,
researchers and teachers a critical exploration which is both
hopeful and critical; acknowledging the complexities and potential
pitfalls, while celebrating the opportunities for drama as a
practice for social action and positive change.
