Abstract

In this interview Joanna -Jaaniste speaks with pioneer dramatherapist Dr Sue Jennings, who founded 'remedial drama' in the '70s, a modality which eventually became known as dramatherapy. Since then, Sue has completed her doctorate on fieldwork with the Senoi Temiar tribe of Malaysia, worked dramatherapeutically with men and women in the fertility clinic of the London Hospital, co-founded the British Association of Dramatherapists, and much more. In this interview she speaks about her work with adults and orphaned young people in Romania using ma'sks; clinical choice points with a range of clients; and the development of her Neuro-DramaticPlay and Embodiment-Projection-Role models. Sue is a prolific author and continues to edit and publish books on dramatherapy.
