Theatre in education is a form of applied theatre that
is widely utilized in foreign, second, and/or additional language education.
Even though several theoretical frameworks are provided, single cases play a
key role to reflect on and to understand this hybrid entity of arts and
education. This case study explains a case of Theatre in education company that
provides theatre in education programmes for the schools in the north of Italy.
The qualitative inquiry collected data by interviewing the theatre-makers about
their experiences. Furthermore, the performances were observed in a certain
rationale. The thematic analysis is grounded on code weights and code
co-occurrences within the data. The results indicated that the programmes provide
a learning experience that fosters active learner participation. The reasons
that lead to learner participation are discussed; moreover, practical
implications are given in the conclusion.
