In the middle where recreational drama and drama for social change happen there is an overlap where boundaries can be blurred. Teaching artists and drama therapists both go into classroom and recreation situations to conduct drama activities; however, the contract is different in each situation, and ethical boundaries limit what can be done, especially in that middle zone. Even drama therapists must identify and follow boundaries in the middle zone. This presentation outlines those boundaries and the training that drama therapists get in order to be able to identify them.Copyright Sally BaileyTeaching ArtistDrama TherapyEthical BoundariesEmotional IntelligenceInterpersonal IntelligenceTheatre EducationBailey, Sally.
