- Description
- In this chapter the authors engage with some of the theoretical assumptions sitting at the heart of drama practice. They explore what can be made possible by a turn to poststructuralist theory as a tool through which to research pedagogically rich experiences. Structured as a critical and confessional dialogue between practitioner/researchers, this chapter demonstrates how an engagement through theory can provide a rich set of metaphors through which to account for the types of learning that can occur through drama-based practices.
