Six years after its initial publication, Applied Theatre returns with a second edition. As the first book to assist practitioners and students to develop critical frameworks for implementing their own theatrical projects, it served as a vital addition to this area of growing interest, winning the Distinguished Book of the Year award from the American Alliance for Theatre and Education. Editors Monica Prendergast and Juliana Saxton have updated the book to reflect shifts in practice over the last few years in the world of applied theatre. Drawing on their backgrounds in drama education and pedagogy, the co-editors offer introductory chapters and dozens of case studies on applied theatre projects around the globe. This new edition of Applied Theatre will encourage students and practitioners to acquire a deeper understanding of the field and its best practices.

'Editors Monica Prendergast and Juliana Saxton have, in their second edition of Applied Theatre: International Case Studies and Challenges for Practice, created an invaluable repository of examples of various types of Applied Theatre from all over the world. Prendergast and Saxton purposefully offer readers the opportunity to pull back the curtain and learn from the successes, mistakes, and sometime failures of seasoned Applied Theatre practitioners. [...] The succinct and concise method Prendergast and Saxton use to define terms, methodologies, models, and motifs would be of significant use to the new practitioner looking to learn more about, and starting to facilitate Applied Theatre. For the more seasoned practitioner it acts as a refresher in the core concepts in our field, and an inspiration regarding the work our colleagues around world are doing, using theatre to make their communities and the world more compassionate, just, and critically-engaged.'
