Play and Performance : Play and Culture Studies, Paperback / softback Book

Play and Performance : Play and Culture Studies Paperback / softback

Edited by Carrie Lobman, Barbara E. O'Neill

Part of the Play and Culture Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

Play and Performance offers hope to those lamenting the loss of play in the twenty-first century and aims to broaden the understanding of what play is.

This volume showcases the work of programs from early childhood through adulthood, in a variety of educational and therapeutic settings, and from a range of theoretical and practical perspectives.

The chapters cover an array of practices that can be seen across the play to performance continuum.

Taken together, the myriad ways that play is performance and performance is play become clear, sometimes blurring the need for distinction.

The volume provides play advocates, researchers and practitioners a wealth of practical and theoretical ideas for expanding the use of performance as a tool for creating playful environments where children and adults can create and develop.
