Abstract We discuss the use of participatory drama and transformative theatre to understand the sources of risk and resilience with coastal communities. We analyze and describe two performances developed as part of a project exploring people’s resilience to extreme weather events and to coastal dynamics in the face of climate change. We examine the process of devising the performance, which used various elicitation techniques to examine what matters to people in times of change and how people are able to respond to changes now and in the future. We discuss how creative practices such as participatory drama may contribute to the understanding of resilience, challenge assumptions, and bring new perspectives. Finally, we discuss how participatory drama informs action- and solutions-oriented work around resilience, poverty, and change. © 2017 by the author(s).

Second emotional engagement with the topic using grief in the case of Cornwall and humor in Kenya connects with the audience and brings new dimensions to understanding how people respond to shocks. The emotional connection we made in the performances enabled the emergence of empathic dialogues similar to how Heras and Tbara identify that theatre can grateful to the communities in Kenya and Cornwall who worked alongside the teams and who gave us the chance to learn from them and with them during the production and performances of Gangavasi and Weather the Storm. Science society and sustainability: education and empowerment for an uncertain world.
