The study posits that in the moment of dramatic performance the individual may experience epiphany or insight. The heuristic and qualitative methods adopted in this study are to observe and describe the experience of dramatic performance when the individual is changed; through genuine focus in performance the performer may be aware of a sense of personal transformation; on reflecting upon the phenomenon the performer may be aware of transcendence. The power of focused performance is such that it can change the performer and spectator and this change embodies a spiritual dimension.The link between dramatic performance and spirituality is an exploration of a neglected educational terrain (Carr). By identifying this dimension of the psyche this research adds to the understanding of dramatic performance and suggests that the participation in drama in schools will be beneficial for students if it were to enliven the spiritual aspect of learning.
