RiDE 2056
As RiDE celebrates its 30-year anniversary in 2026, this themed issue invites critical and imaginative consideration of applied theatre and drama education futures. What will the terrain of applied theatre, drama education and applied performance look like by 2056? In assembling the issue, we have conceived of three sections: articles focusing on the past and present, practices which gesture towards the future and articles that envision imagined …
Building radical hope in an imagined world
We present the emerging concept of Creative Critical Collective Futuring (3CF) as a theory and method to co-imagine more radically hopeful, racially-just futures in the year 2056.

Our work also revealed how a racially-jus…

Using the Australian state of Queensland as a case study, we trace examples of decolonisin…

For those experiencing urban poverty, resilience holds little weight against the national rhetoric of self-reliance and meritocracy as keys to success. This paper presents a three-way conversation between the researcher, applied theatre facilitator, and youth participant, centring on the role applied theatre plays in examining the relationship b…
