Zusammenfassung:How can Shakespearean performance be used with different communities to assist personal growth and development, while advancing social justice goals? Employing an integrative approach that draws from science, actor training, therapeutical practices and current research on the senses, this study reveals the work being done by drama practitioners with a range of specialized populations, such as incarcerated people, neurodiverse individuals, those with physical or emotional disabilities, veterans, persons labeled 'rough sleepers' and many others. With insights drawn from visits to numerous international programs, it argues that these endeavors succeed when they engage all five human senses and incorporate kinesthetic learning.
