‘The authors suggest that in the arts the unplanned or the interruptive can be the most arresting moment. They explore this hypothesis through examples presented by experienced dramatherapists, and through reference to significant writers, such as Jung and Levinas. The result is an intriguing, creative and original book that considers the causes and roots of interruptions in different contexts. A timely book, reflective, well-constructed and offering the reader the opportunity to consider in a new way the role of interruption in our daily lives.’ Diane Waller, Emeritus Professor of Art Psychotherapy, Goldsmiths University of London

'Among the most interesting of edited books are those offering a specific theme that contributors, like jazz musicians, riff on, explore, and expand. This prescient volume weaves ancient and modern thought to capture drama therapy’s potential for addressing the current moment, including reflections on living (and working) through a pandemic and welcome interrogations of therapeutic dogma. Readers will find grounding reminders and disruptively fresh ideas—a tension we need as we contemplate new horizons of practice.' Craig Haen, Ph.D., Private Practitioner and Co-Founder of the Kint Institute
