This workshop will explore in action how to direct a sociodrama through its different stages, illustrating the differences with directing a psychodrama.
The first session will focus on elements of the following, in no particular order:
- Warm-up to the session/group and to a topic and roles
- The differences in role terms between PD and SD – what do we mean by social roles in an SD context
- What might be the differences between directing PD and SD
- Briefly look at different types of SD e.g. multi-scene, protagonist-centred SD
- Exploring the differences between how we might use Morenian tools such as doubling, role reversal, soliloquy, in PD & SD, as well as introducing participants to the tool of “tagging”, developed by Dr Wiener
- How to choose a scene
- Concretising
- What are the director’s choices re moving the action forward – the roundabout
- How to deal with someone who is emotionally triggered – e.g. doing a short PD vignette within the overall context of SD
The second session will also include focus on the following:
- Experiencing a stop/start SD directed by the facilitators sharing their thinking and decision-making, including having participants in small groups come up with ideas for ‘what could happen next’
- Sharing in small groups – from roles participants played, personal sharing, social learning about the topic
- Reflecting together on the learning about directing SD
- Closure
