Drama Therapy prof contributes to new book Playing in a House of Mirrors

The Department of Creative Arts Therapies Assistant Professor Jason Butler has written a chapter in a recently published book. Playing in a House of Mirrors: Applied Theatre as Reflective Practice explores the concept of reflection through a dramaturgical lens as practitioners in a wide range of disciplines hold up the mirror to their own practice using theatre and theatricality as a way of unpacking their individual and collective practice. Editors and authors consider the use of drama as the vehicle through which learning takes place for the leader, facilitator or manager of an experience rather than the use of drama and theatre as a tool for learning subject content. Dr. Butler’s chapter is entitled Playing with Reflection in Drama Therapy Education.

Playing in a House of Mirrors is edited by Elinor Vettraino, Bishop Grosseteste University, UK and Warren Linds, Concordia University.
