What you will be doing
Drama therapy can facilitate personal exploration, insight and creativity while providing a safe space for self-expression and the embodiment of emotions. In group settings, drama therapy can also foster interpersonal connection and social skills development through the practice of collective storytelling. Workshop attendees will learn how drama therapy can encourage improved communication, empathy and self-reflection by exploring key drama concepts and participating in a variety of theatrical exercises. No prior experience needed!
