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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChallenging 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIllustrated 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sue Jennings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1853021156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781853021152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessica Kingsley Publishers, Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.04h x 6.20w x 0.45d","brand":"Sue Jennings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984419291391,"sku":"9781853021152","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bf2095ff-0046-4cf5-90fb-1fe8c042edc7.jpg?v=1683272204","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/introduction-to-dramatherapy-sue-jennings-9781853021152","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
