Abstract: School bullying has become an international focus for concern. With a rise in technological access to applications, bullies have become even more powerful in their pervasiveness. Parents, teachers, politicians and young people have all joined the call for action. The applied theatre community, amongst others, has responded to the issue. But how successful can interventions really be against school bullying? The demand for ‘evidence’ within applied arts and health has provoked mixed responses amongst academics and practitioners. Working from both successes and failures, approaches to the study of transformation provide valuable insights and debate
