This practical book explores the theory and practice of using drama in groupwork. Drama therapy offers flexibility, spontaneity and allows one to be "freeze-framed", "rewound", "fast-forward", and "replayed." It allows individuals to stand in other people's shoes and see the world through their eyes. The experience of drama can bring people closer together, build confidence and establish a "group feeling." For leaders, it can revitalize and refresh the parts that some other working methods fail to reach. It helps to renew commitment to tasks and identify achievable goals.

Contents include: Why use drama?, drama techniques, drama techniques in practice, wider applications, drama & training: communications skills & relationships.
