Abstract

Moves educators to reflect on their practice of inclusion/exclusion and what constitutes authentic participation in theatre education classrooms. Believes that teacher education should strive to reconceive, or eliminate, the concept of "youthland" (the separation of young people from adult society) by preparing teachers who will treat students as responsible individuals.
