CHAPTER SIX: CONTEXT AND FURTHER USE OF THE FINDINGS OF MY ACTION RESEARCH Bond’s work with LTD has generated interest in developing this complex field. My research builds on his work and develops it further in directions that are different than the ones explored by Davis. The impact of including different Bondian structures explicitly into LTD is a major step forward from the work of Davis in this territory. Hopefully this research will be followed by other explorations in this territory. The assertion that LTD is compatible with complex theatre practices will perhaps encourage others to explore various connections between theatre and the living through approach. I also hope that some of the exciting questions raised by the research will be studied further by colleagues. On a personal level there are a number of questions I would like to investigate further. I believe that a more tightly focused exploration of the use of objects or the subject of reflection could develop my understanding further in this field. I look forward to adapting the outcomes of this research to working with younger children and also testing how engaging with the same group of participants for an extended period of time can help in working in more complex ways. The findings from this research will greatly influence my future work, both as a drama educator and a theatre practitioner. + 244 +
