Description - Creative Play and Drama with Adults at Risk by Sue Jennings
Focusing on creative action and why it is important, this hands-on manual illustrates how adults can play and make a difference to how they feel about themselves and the world around them. Written for a variety of professionals, it gives a clear introduction to the application of play and drama work with many different client groups. It bears in mind that many adults feel nervous about drama and think that playing is childish. Material is chosen sensitively to enable confidence and creativity building and the development of communication skills. These include 'finding your voice', 'lost for words' and 'who would I like to be?'. There are ideas for improvisation and movement as well as masks and myths. Cross-cultural perspectives are discussed together with boundaries for clinical groups. The importance of the healing potential of artistic expression is addressed throughout.
