"I have worked to create a book that defines ethnodrama as a qualitative, arts-based research methodology and then outlines the steps I use in my process. Chapter 1 establishes ethnodrama as a qualitative, arts-based research method and identifies connections to other forms of qualitative research and styles of theatre. In Chapter 2, readers learn how to conceive and design a study that leverages the power of ethnodrama as an arts-based form while maintaining the rigor needed to legitimize the research within more traditionally-minded academic environments. Chapter 3 discusses ways to recruit interview participants for a data collection process and shares a template for an interviewing protocol that prioritizes the interview participant's experience first and foremost. Chapter 4 provides guidance for presenting interview data as transcripts and then coding those transcripts for recurring themes that answer the project's central research question(s). Chapters 5 and 6 shift to disseminating the findings via the ethnodramatic scripting process. Chapter 7 explores moving an ethnodramatic script into rehearsal and production as a piece of ethnotheatre. Chapter 8 concludes the book with a discussion of how to evaluate the research findings based on how audiences who experience the ethnodrama in performance respond to the presentation of the research findings, how participants in the data collection process react to the sharing of their stories via the ethnodrama, and what artists engaging in the creation and performance of the ethnodrama discover about the research findings"--
