Research News/ a Review
We published an excellent topical research article here about the uses of reader's theatre
in aging and health. Dr. Maura McIntyre, Centre for Arts Informed Research, Department
of Adult Education, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, shares in the article
"Home is Where the Heart Is" how, as a researcher, she has used Reader's Theatre,
in a participative way with staff to raise awareness about staff working in nursing
homes and what the staff can teach us about the places and people who work in nursing homes.
You'll also find a profound, poetic and deeply moving account, "My Mother's Body, A Story of
Grieving, Remembering and Touch", as Dr. John J. Guiney Yallop shares his autoethnographic
writings.
