Arts-based Research in Theatre and Performance provides a roadmap for conducting arts-based research. It offers a vibrant exploration of how ethnography, autoethnography, poetry, and fiction can be used successfully in research projects.

This volume delves into a rich array of works from the theatre and performance canon, reframing them through the lens of arts-based research. Readers are introduced to the innovative methodologies and bold contributions of diverse artists and scholars, both contemporary and historical, who may help redefine how readers understand, document, and engage with performance as arts-based research. Each chapter walks the reader through practical exercises so they can develop their techniques and research projects.

With reflections on professional and academic practice throughout, this is an accessible guide for students and practitioners wanting to conduct their own arts-based research in theatre, performance, drama therapy, drama education, applied theatre, and other similar fields.
