Expanding and defining the boundaries of drama therapy knowledge and practice

Abstract

This editorial presents an analysis of research articles, clinical commentaries and reviews that attest to the evolution of the profession of drama therapy. Each contribution raises critical questions pertaining to how, where and with whom drama therapists train and practise. Contributing authors unsettle notions of private, public and virtual space, ableist assumptions that interfere with training as a drama therapist, and call for a deeper engagement with what distinguishes our profession while upholding equity, diversity and justice as core values.
