The book specifically applies ‘real fiction’ practice to the issue of social labelling in education. In this sense, it aims to challenge the use of labelling language in social and educational contexts. This is done through the process of utilising ‘real fiction’ monologue writing practice to explore labels, their meaning and operation, in the lives of a sample group of young people. One of the objectives of the book is to show how the documentary theatre practice of ‘real fiction’ can be used to influence and transform the social and cultural lives of young people. It then expands on the broader implications for this, through the use of an example, creating a play script from participants’ monologue data. Ultimately, this book is concerned with diversity and inclusion through the practice of the performing arts. It aims to build knowledge about the ways in which theatre-making practice and the teaching of drama can contribute to a more equitable society. It is interdisciplinary in the sense that it not only seeks new ways of teaching drama, but also educating through the practice of theatre, monologue writing and method acting.
This book is suitable for readers interested in drama, playwriting, theatre practice, acting and education.

Scott Welsh is an academic, playwright and poet with expertise in creativity, social constructionism, and education. In a previous life, he lived for several years as a homeless person and sold his poetry on the street throughout Australia. Several of his plays have been performed at La Mama over the past two decades and his poetry read by many and broadcast on ABC Radio National. Prior to that, he worked and wrote in regional Victoria, where he published several self-published books. In 2016, he completed a PhD in the role theatre can play in education and his work emphasises the relationship between experience and creative practice and, most recently, his thoughts have turned to the homeless experience of his cat. Some of his play titles include: There’s a Naked Man in My Loungeroom (2001), Barcode 30!!7 307 (2002-2003), The No Teeth People (2009), The Biography of a Battler (2012), The Outcaste Weakly Poet (2014), Charles Manson and the subtle art of Radicalisation (2016), Serving Coffee @ Sims (2017), Moosh the Hobo Cat (2023).
