The purpose of this study was to determine the perceptions of participants from German and Turkish population in relation to creative drama by using a metaphor method to investigate whether these perceptions reflect the objectives and general characteristics of creative drama. The participants' perceptions of creative drama have been determined through compositions written as a response to an open-ended question. The metaphors to which the participants responded were classified separately for each country and all the metaphors were grouped around common themes. Following this was an examination of the findings in relation to the objectives and characteristics of creative drama. The data obtained in the study was analyzed by using qualitative techniques. In line with the findings, differences and similarities between the two countries have been determined.
