520 1 $a"People are torn by conflict, fractured by cultural, religious, racial and economic divides. Religion has often been a prime motivator for this violence. Classrooms must be places in which we learn to hold differences and commonalities. Classrooms are opportunities to rehearse, to practice, how we want to live with one another. Religions, says Victoria Rue, are more than ideas: they are lived, enacted by human beings in particular ways. And courses in religion need more than a cognitive understanding of central concepts. Rue asserts that students need to viscerally encounter belief, religious practice, religious imagination, and religious experience." "Acting Religious, a practical handbook, maps a new approach that uses theatre to teach religion. For many years, Rue has used theatre techniques and plays to introduce students to what she calls the "experience" of religion, showing how theatre makes theological ideas palatable, visceral, and available. Acting religious is at once a call to experience meaning and a theatre method to embody it."--BOOK JACKET.
