The Healthy Balance Research Program: theatre as a means of knowledge translation.
The author examines the potential of theatre as a means of knowledge translation (KT). In the Healthy Balance Research Program, a community-university research alliance, the play Balancing Act served as a means of KT. Though the play was successful in meeting some of the program's KT objectives, aspects of the performance can be reimagined in order to maximize the KT potential of theatre.
