A case study of Art-Shelter Bunker theatre explores the fascinating story of how a traumatic event, a dog bite, inspired the creation of a successful theatre company. Drawing on a narrative inquiry approach, we examine the personal experiences and reflections of the theatre company’s founder, who, after being bitten by a dog, underwent a profound transformation that ultimately led to the creation of a unique and impactful theatre company. Our examination underscores the significance of trauma and resilience within the dynamic model of the creative process, underscoring the crucial role that personal narrative plays in shaping artistic expression. Through this inquiry, we hope to better understand the complex and multifaceted relationship between personal experience, trauma, and creativity.
