  • The Future of Drama Therapy Robert J
    The Arts in Psychotherapy 33 (2006) 135–142 The future of drama therapy Robert J. Landy Ph.D., RDT/BCT ∗ New York University, Educational Theatre and Applied Psychology, 35 West 4 Street, New York, NY 10012, USA Abstract The author surveys the discipline of drama therapy as it exists in 2005 and discusses its current identity as a profession, including its strengths and weaknesses in terms of training, theory and practice, research and mentoring. While offering a critical perspective, the author looks toward the future, elaborating upon the challenges facing drama therapists and offering a vision of where the field ought to be headed. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Keywords: Drama; Therapy; Future What is drama therapy? Drama therapy is one of the several expressive or creative arts therapies, among which are art therapy, bibliotherapy, dance/movement therapy, music therapy, poetry therapy and psychodrama. Drama therapy concerns a relationship between a therapist and a client or clients who attempt to make sense of their life experience as they engage partly or fully in a creative process, in this case through the media of drama and theatre. These media include, but are not limited to, storytelling and storymaking, role-playing and role-reversal, improvisation, mask and puppet play, sandplay, play therapy, rehearsal and theatrical performance. The clients are the ones who work toward making sense of their lives. The drama therapists are the guides that help the client along the way through applying any number of techniques, approaches and theoretical frameworks. Most importantly, drama therapists help their clients though examining their own temperaments, affective styles, personal strengths and weaknesses, guiding principles and biases, and using what they know to be true about themselves in the service of their client’s search for meaning.

  • Drama Therapy Article
    Drama Therapy Article Albert Einstein once said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” This emphasis on the value of imagination and creativity coincides with the underlying concept in the field of drama therapy of how anxiety, depression and other mental health issues can take over when we forget how to imagine, play, create, make messes, and laugh. Which is why artistic expressions—such as painting, music, poetry, dance, and drama—are considered to be the most natural, effective and powerful enzymes to consume, break down, process, absorb, release, and transform our human experiences and emotions. So then, what exactly ​is​ “Drama Therapy”? Drama therapy is the intentional use of drama and/or theatre processes to achieve therapeutic goals. It is a uniquely active and experiential approach that skillfully combines theater and psychotherapy that aims to facilitate change, uncover and express feelings, and, as appropriate, achieve catharsis in order to resolve problematic patterns and emotional issues. Through a multitude of various drama and theatre process techniques, such as: storytelling, projective play, games, purposeful improvisation, psychodrama, facilitated enactments of real situations, scenework, ritual and performance, participants are invited to rehearse desired behaviors, practice being in relationship, expand and find flexibility between life roles, and perform the change they wish to be and see in the world. Drama therapy provides participants with a safe, yet stimulating context in which the depth and breadth of inner experience can be actively explored and interpersonal relationship skills can be enhanced.

Throughout history, both fields have interacted with projection through both assessment, research, and storytelling. In drama therapy, the movement from classification of expressive techniques (Lindzey, 1959) to the concept of ‘projective techniques’ is distinctive due to its use of objects such as miniatures and masks to project story (Dunne, 2009).

  • Using the 6-Key Model As an Intervention Tool in Drama Therapy1
    Using the 6-Key Model as an intervention tool in drama therapy1 Susana Pendzik, PhD, RDT Depatment of Comparative Literature Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel [email protected] 1 NOTICE: this is the author's version of a work that was accepted for publication in The Arts in Psychotherapy. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting, and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in this document. Changes may have been made to this work since it was submitted for publication. A definitive version was subsequently published in The Arts in Psychotherapy, 35 (2008), 349-354. 1 Abstract The 6-Key Model is an integrative, drama therapy-based, method of assessment and intervention. The model is anchored in the notion of dramatic reality – which it views as a genuine therapeutic force and a paramount tool for intervention in drama therapy. Each key is connected to a different aspect of dramatic reality (including form, content, and occurrences outside dramatic reality). The model provides the therapist with a systematic means for mapping drama therapy processes and structuring the therapeutic work. By presenting an overall picture of the situation, the model signals at specific keys where therapeutic interventions would be most effective. This paper presents the basics of the 6- Key Model, focusing on its use as a tool for intervention in drama therapy. The article offers concrete ideas for intervention in each key, and a case example. Keywords: drama therapy, dramatic reality, assessment, intervention, drama therapy-based model 2 “Of all delectable islands the Neverland is the snuggest and most compact; not large and sprawly, you know, with tedious distance between one adventure and another, but nicely crammed.
