Abstract

Set in Greenwich University in London, the National Drama International Conference 2013 encompassed practitioners and academics worldwide together with their remembrance and perspectives on an influential figure of drama in education – Dorothy Heathcote. As the title shown – “Heathcote Reconsidered”, the four-day conference was being organized with an astute focus on the practice and the influences that Dorothy left us to learn, to reconsider, and “to dig deeper” as Gavin Bolton reminded us in the opening keynote of the conference.
