“…And while other branches of Theater of the Oppressed (Boal 1979) have been applied and researched in teacher education contexts (Placier et al 2005(Placier et al , 2006Sanders 2004), this work is distinguished by its sole application of The Rainbow of Desire and the attendant singular focus on PST emotion. *Email: Rachel.Forgasz@monash.edu RiDE: The Journal of Applied Theatre and Performance, 2014Vol.…”

This is a photographic and textual account of research that reframes the Boalian technique 'The Rainbow of Desire' (TRoD) as a form of embodied self-reflexivity within initial teacher education. In particular, TRoD is applied as an embodied reflective process to provoke reflection on the emotional dimensions of learning to teach. The application of TRoD in this research subverts the traditional privileging of logical-rational knowledge forms and processes within higher education. As such, this research produces a new, politicised purpose for TRoD itself, which has traditionally been categorised as a therapeutic applied theatre practice.

In the United States and in Australia, techniques from Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed (1979) have been successfully applied in teacher education contexts, for example to explore issues of race and power (Placier, Burgoyne, Cockrell, Welch, & Neville, 2005), to develop students' multicultural awareness (Burgoyne et al, 2007), to help students come to terms with the experience of difference and diversity (Bhukhanwala & Allexsaht-Snider, 2013), and as a form of embodied reflection on teaching (Branscombe & Schneider, 2013;Forgasz, 2014aForgasz, , 2014b.…”
