Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to look at understandings enabled through drama and to discuss those understandings in relation to a discourse around ecological understanding. The intention is to open space for appreciation of drama as a critically reflective methodology suited to the development of an ecological way of thinking, then to consider the broader relevance of insights arrived at in this way. In progressing the discussion I want to draw on the concept of ecological understanding through reference to the work of Gregory Bateson (1972, 1979; Harries-Jones 1995).
