Dramatherapy is now well-established and widely used in a variety
of settings with diverse groups of people. In this book, Sue
Jennings presents a 'healing theatre' approach to dramatherapy,
showing how it is part of our total cultural experience of theatre
art, and how it can be used to find a bearable means of facing the
beast at the heart of the labyrinth. Challenging received views
from psychology and psychotherapy on the theoretical base of
dramatherapy, she argues that the dramatic development of the
individual is a primary developmental process, which is influential
from conception and is shaped by cultural context. She maintains
that by participating in drama and theatre as well as exploring our
'dramatic' past, a new pathway to self-knowledge and fulfilment is
opened as a viable alternative to conventional practice.
Illustrated with many examples, the book also includes exercises
and questionnaires which can be used in practice, with students, or
for self-study, illuminating the relationship between theatre and
healing, and the theatrical basis of dramatherapy.
