Summary |
Children's theatre is thriving and interest grows in its educational, emotional and expressive benefits. But no detailed, reflective research exists on their theatrical perceptions. Using innovative audience research, interviews and contextual analysis, this book uncovers the experiences of children aged 4-11 when attending a dramatic performance. |
