This concentrated and longitudinal focus is unique not only within Bloomsbury’s excellent Applied Theatre series ... but within applied theatre studies more generally. ... This means that Applied Theatre: Resettlement is of equal value as a teaching text in terms of modelling large-scale project design and evolution as it is in terms of moving theoretical and methodological knowledge substantially forward in the area of applied theatre practice with asylum seekers and refugees.
