ABSTRACT This article explores eight short plays by Noel Streatfeild (1895–1986), seven of which a cast of children and adults performed as a fundraiser in an Eastbourne, East Sussex home, probably in early 1934. Heinemann published the Eastbourne pieces, bound with the eighth play, as The Children’s Matinée in a single volume later that year. The article covers Streatfeild’s background as actress, playwright, producer, and novelist; her literary toolkit, including her familiarity with stories, drama, music, and popular culture from ancient times to the 1930s; and her role in creating an intergenerational environment for the production of these plays.

ABSTRACT This essay takes as its starting point a creative aging project in partnership with the Mesa Arts Center’s, Art in Mind Program; TimeSlips (founded by MacArthur Fellow Ann Basting); and a Projects in Community-Based Theatre graduate course at Arizona State University within the Theatre for Youth and Community MFA and PhD programs. This non-memory-based storytelling collaboration focused on elders living with memory loss and/or dementia and centered a core theatre for youth value — all humans deserve to participate in creative and cultural life no matter their age, neuro-cognitive or physical abilities. A parallel focus of the collaboration was the belief that such creative engagements also allow elder-care systems and families to benefit from participating with their residents and loved-ones — impacting adaptive and expressive creativity, emotional connections, and joyful participation in imaginative life.

ABSTRACT This is a descriptive account of an intergenerational project between Theatre for Seniors and The Community Theatre in Singapore. The project explores the relationship between health and inequality through a devised performance titled Something in the Air, in reference to the country’s regular occurrences of transboundary haze. Drawing on observation notes and conversations with the participants, the paper reflects on the complex learning opportunities that emerge when creating community performance not only on an intergenerational level but one where class and ethnic diversity also come into play.

ABSTRACT This practitioner reflection explores the impact of a long-term inter-generational theatre project operating at the intersection between community and professional theatre practices in south-east London. The work developed through a creative partnership established between London South Bank University School of Performance, Southwark Playhouse and the New York Theatre Workshop whose intergenerational programme, Mind the Gap began in 2009. In this critically reflective essay, I seek to interrogate the precise nature of the impact of Mind the Gap! UK, derived from working with professional artists and processes within a community context. Writing in the journal of Health Promotion Practice, Anderson et al. observe that developing theatre performances from participants’ own experience and stories creates a “unique space that release(s) participants from usual ways of thinking and interacting” and this has certainly proved to be true for the Mind the Gap! ensembles. In order to understand how and what impact is generated, I will evaluate the key artistic and theatre practices which underpin the work and consider the precise nature of the effect of taking part in the project for both youth and elder participants.
本实践者反思探讨了在伦敦东南部社区和专业剧院实践的交叉点上运营的长期跨代剧院项目的影响。这项工作是通过伦敦南岸大学表演学院、南华克剧院和纽约戏剧工作室之间建立的创造性合作伙伴关系发展起来的，纽约戏剧工作室的代际项目“Mind The Gap”始于2009年。在这篇批判性反思的文章中，我试图询问Mind the Gap的影响的确切性质!在英国，来自于与专业艺术家的合作，并在社区环境中进行处理。Anderson等人在《健康促进实践》(Health Promotion Practice)杂志上发表文章称，根据参与者自己的经历和故事来发展戏剧表演，创造了一个“独特的空间，让参与者从通常的思维和互动方式中解脱出来”，这一点在《心灵的鸿沟》(Mind the Gap)中无疑是正确的!集合体。为了了解如何以及产生什么影响，我将评估支撑工作的关键艺术和戏剧实践，并考虑参加该项目对青年和老年人参与者的影响的确切性质。

ABSTRACT This article is a story told to a young boy by his grandmother. Once upon a time, there existed a place where listening to stories was a way of life. This happened in all places around the world: Lakota and Navajo tribes of North America; Yoruba and Guji-Oromo in Africa; Estonian or Basque Country in Europe … But suddenly, the titan Mr. Neoliberalism displaced the elders: casting its shadow and silencing places. Economic production became all-consuming and human beings used almost all their energies pursuing it. And then, hope emerged as intergenerational performance. Some communities participating in this type of performance – Reminiscence Theatre and Verbatim Theatre, for example – recovered the collective power of storytelling to educate both the young and old about values, culture, identities and history … Storytelling invites ways to know who we are, where we come from, and where we belong: storytelling as hope, storytelling as a dream, storytelling as a magic space where imagining other realities is possible.

ABSTRACT This reflection will offer insights into the methodology of process drama as a tool for intergenerational connection, co-intentional pedagogy, and playfulness for children collaborating with older adult patients living with dementia. Providing insights into the adaption of conventional models of process drama drawing on the work of Cecily O’Neill, this reflection considers the key lessons learnt from two years of Intergen, a project funded by Imperial Health Charity. Though the project itself incorporated multiple art forms, this piece will focus on intergenerational process drama to share insights into the way the practice evolved to engage both older adult patients and children in acute hospital contexts.
这一反思将为过程戏剧的方法论提供见解，作为代际联系、共同意向教学法和儿童与老年痴呆症患者合作的游戏性的工具。本文借鉴Cecily O 'Neill的作品，对传统过程戏剧模式的改编进行了深入研究，并考虑了由帝国健康慈善机构(Imperial Health Charity)资助的Intergen项目为期两年的主要经验教训。虽然项目本身结合了多种艺术形式，但这件作品将专注于代际过程戏剧，以分享实践演变的方式，以参与急性医院环境中的老年成人患者和儿童。
