Level ONE: COPS IN THE HEAD
WHY you must attend:

In theatre games, a social and economical environment can be created for clients to work in, helping individuals to identify the external factors affecting their choices and decisions.

Using Group Work, participants experience the concept in using Games & Images to assist in opening up the clients’ minds and attitudes, stimulating their behavior and thoughts. Other participants in the workshops can then Project what they perceive about these images, making each image multi-dimensional. Reflections within the group are necessary to develop more personal experiences.

A short Forum Theatre piece will be created where Interventions are encouraged to help each participant see the many possibilities of each action, thus Empowering the participants and making it a Personalized Experience.

WHAT you will learn:
  • Image of the Images – Develops empathy & multi-perspectives on the problem
  • Cops in the Head – Identifies external factors that affect decisions
  • Lightning Forum – Stimulates the mind in quick interventions to solve problems
