Excerpts from Theatre: Its Healing Role in Education
Vantage Press, New York, 2009
Every educator involved with theatre’s potential for healing, benefits from a knowledge of its healing traditions.
Truly, what greater gift can we provide for our young people than in conveying a proper estimation of who they are? Certainly a vision of their true natures and capacities forms the underpinning of all else.
With a little boost from us, our children can reopen the windows to a different world, where separation, frustration, and violence are replaced by connection, self-esteem, and celebration of family.
Recalling a teaching visit to Kabul, Afghanistan:
If many windows of the world seem recently to have been shattered, we can always look through others that wait only to be opened.
Recalling a “Healing Through Humor” Siberian celebration:
How could one ever forget such an evening? Art had provided a magical trampoline on which we were all children bounding and rebounding higher and higher in an exhilarating dance to human fellowship.
