Summary "In this book, Kathleen Gallagher presents a case study that illustrates how drama provides a fertile ground for the intellectual and emotional development of girls. By examining the power and possibility of drama in schools to animate the processes of learning, Gallagher's research offers pedagogical alternatives in what she sees as an increasingly mechanistic and disempowering period in education. This work is a contribution to the fields of equity studies and the arts in education, as it provides a new lens through which to examine gender, diversity, and schooling."--Jacket.
