- ‘Applied Theatre and Sexual Health Communication’ is a 110,000-word monograph analysing the partnership between applied theatre and sexual health communication through a theatre-making project with 28 young people in Nyanga, a township in South Africa. It examines material gathered over two years of practice research undertaken with hard-to-reach participants, drawing on methodologies developed over ten years, including interviewing participants in 2009, 2014 and 2017. This multilayered research process, including collective performative investigation and analysis, proposes newly conceptualized approaches to sexual health communication, and re-evaluates theories of value in capturing research outcomes in the field of applied theatre.
