Situating the applied drama practitioner : searching for an ethical process through the development of an applied drama partnership in a pediatric health care setting

Contextual, personal, theoretical, and institutional forces intersect in the
development of an intentional and ethical applied drama practice. This document charts several ethical signposts marking the development process of an applied drama project, Child-centered Improvisation, in a pediatric dialysis clinic. It argues for a deep
understanding of the fields and contexts in which drama is applied and an awareness of
the multiplicity of voices therein. The resulting discussion claims bewilderment as a productive space and privileges a narration of the complementary practices of an applied
drama practice in a pediatric healthcare setting. The document concludes with
recommendations specific to developing applied drama practices in such settings. / text
