Policy Paper - Drama Improves Lisbon Key Competences in Education

“
I changed a lot. I used not to talk with people a lot. Now I talk to my family at home
more. I try to affect them, as if I am training them, as if I am acting. Now I can get
along better with people and friends. I deal better with the problems at home.
I never used to sit with friends more than half an hour, and the rest of the time I
would read or sit on the internet. But now things have changed. I sit with people, we
talk, about many things, about the play. When I sit with myself after the rehearsals I
try to review what we have learned."
