Summary:
"For young people, the space of the drama classroom can be a space for deep learning as they struggle with common purpose and across difference to create something together. Collaborating across institutions, theatres, and community spaces, the research in Hope in a Collapsing World mobilizes theatre to build its methodology and create new data with young people as they seek the language of performance to communicate their worries, fears, and dreams to a global network of researchers and a wider public. Using both ethnographic study and playwriting, a collaboration of social scientist and playwright, Hope in a Collapsing World is a ground-breaking hybrid format of research text and the original script built from it - Towards Youth: A Play on Radical Hope - for reading, experimentation, and performance."-- Provided by publisher.
