Abstract

This article aims to display an ethnodrama playscript with the story of a gambling husband coping with his financial struggle and his family’s emotional reactions. The researcher was involved as collaborating playwright in the project, assisting a devising director who led a group of ex-gambling addicts and their family members referred by a Hong Kong counselling service. The ethnotheatre generated, interpreted and mediated data from interviews and devising sessions, and exhibited a painful story about the downfall of a taxi driver who earned easy money by betting and ended up in heavy debt, having to resort to begging his wife for money. The article also includes a discussion on reality and truth, as interpretation perspectives in arts-based research.

期刊介绍： Applied Theatre Research is the worldwide journal for theatre and drama in non-traditional contexts. It focuses on drama, theatre and performance with specific audiences or participants in a range of social contexts and locations. Contexts include education, developing countries, business and industry, political debate and social action, with children and young people, and in the past, present or future; locations include theatre which happens in places such as streets, conferences, war zones, refugee camps, prisons, hospitals and village squares as well as on purpose-built stages. The primary audience consists of practitioners and scholars of drama, theatre and allied arts, as well as educationists, teachers, social workers and community leaders with an awareness of the significance of theatre and drama, and an interest in innovative and holistic approaches to theatrical and dramatic production, learning and community development. Contributors include eminent and experienced workers and scholars in the field, but cutting-edge contemporary and experimental work from new or little-known practitioners is also encouraged. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal has a global focus and representation, with an explicit policy of ensuring that the best and most exciting work in all continents and as many countries as possible is represented and featured. Cultural, geographical, gender and socio-economic equity are recognised where possible, including in the Review Board.
