| Annotation | The older generation is often portrayed as being a 'problem' for society. This case study describes two theatre projects in which elder participants develop their creativity, explore issues to do with the ageing process and confront many of the stereotypes about growing old, and then take their efforts out into the wider community. The author is a senior sociodrama trainer with the British Psychodrama Association, as well as a lead tutor in drama with the Lawrence Batley Theatre in Huddersfield. (KJ/RH). |
