The book offers a compelling combination of analyis and detailed
description of aesthetic projects with young refugee arrivals in
Australia. In it the authors present a framework that
contextualises the intersections of refugee studies, resilience and
trauma, and theatre and arts-based practice, setting out a context
for understanding and valuing the complexity of drama in this
growing area of applied theatre. "Applied Theatre: Resettlement"
includes rich analysis of three aesthetic case studies in Primary,
Secondary and Further Education contexts with young refugees. The
case studies provide a unique insight into the different age
specific needs of newly arrived young people. The authors detail
how each group and educational context shaped diverse drama and
aesthetic responses: the Primary school case study uses process
drama as a method to enhance language acquisition and develop
intercultural literacy; the Secondary school project focuses on
Forum Theatre and peer teaching with young people as a means of
enhancing language confidence and creating opportunities for
cultural competency in the school community, and the further
education case study explores work with unaccompanied minors and
employs integrated multi art forms (poetry, art, drama, digital
arts, clay sculptures and voice work) to increase confidence in
language acquisition and explore different forms of expression and
communication about the transition process. Through its careful
framing of practice to speak to concerns of power, process,
representation and ethics, the authors ensure the studies have an
international relevance beyond their immediate context. "Drama,
Refugees and Resilience" contributes to new professional knowledge
building in the fields of applied theatre and refugee studies about
the efficacy of drama practice in enhancing language acquisition,
cultural settlement and pedagogy with newly arrived refugee young
people.
