Drama An Introduction to Dramatherapy is a concise introduction to the
background, theory and practice of a method of therapy which uses the
dramatic process to help people during times of stress, emotional
upheaval, illness or disability. Illustrated throughout with vivid
examples from dramatherapy sessions, the book shows how drama can be
used in an intentional and directional way to achieve constructive
change with individuals or groups. In particular, the book highlights
the power of drama as a therapeutic medium because of its foundations
in metaphor, power which can be harnessed through the use of
techniques such as role play, enactment, story-telling and the use of
puppets and masks. An Introduction to Dramatherapy provides a welcome
overview for readers who are new to the field and an excellent
starting point for further study.
