Noble, Steven E.
New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, n107 p45-53 Fall 2005
Transgressive and liberatory learning are explored through the creativity of popular theater as adult education when the freedom and power to imagine and raise awareness are placed in the interacting "bodymind" relationships of a group living with multiple psychiatric diagnoses.
