Reviews
Robin Larsen,
PhD, co-author, A Fire in the Mind: The Life of Joseph Campbell
"A basic operating manual for anyone who works with expressive
therapies, role play, storytelling. Jo Salas's language is as direct and
evocative as a Playback Theatre episode. Study this book, use it!"
Parabola Magazine
"Readers
concerned with story and theatre will find much of interest in this
clearly and simply written account, which combines some of the elements of
a how-to manual with reflection and theory." Mady Schutzmann, Co-Editor, Playing
Boal: Theatre, Therapy, Activism
"This is a must-read book not
only for theatre artists, but for educators and social service
professionals interested in the arts as a tool toward both self-expression
and community building."
