ADEM Past Issues to Download

We are delighted to be able to share with you the latest Australian Drama Education Magazine  – ADEM No 19 – 2023: ANTiDOTE.

ADEM’s 2023 theme of ANTiDOTE echoes the 2023 Drama Australia National Conference. ANTiDOTE, as a conference and as a themed edition of ADEM, aims to open space for sharing innovative drama practice and research that acts as a creative remedy for contemporary challenges.

Within our conference and publication, we hope that considering drama as an antidote can help us to:

  • explore how drama education crafts hope, remedies and collective insights into challenges of living in times of crisis, inequity and change.
  • celebrate the radical creative praxis that underpins drama education.
  • examine new directions and effective methods that meet the challenges we face in our pasts, presents and possible futures.
  • hold space for each other, our students and our communities, to tell and stage stories that matter.
