Children with autism spectrum disorder have significant difficulty in many areas of social competence including social cognition, communication and interaction. Theatre has the potential to serve as a novel therapeutic approach in which to teach essential social skills. SENSE Theatre®, a peer-mediated, theatre-based intervention research program, has been shown to enhance social competence in children, adolescent and adults with autism across several randomized clinical trials. The presentation will discuss the rationale, findings and significance of blending the innovation of  art and rigor of science to impact how we interact with the social world.
