Image Theatre: Rehearsing Alternative Ways To Act In A Conflict Situation
Students will learn the basics of drama-based processes and Image Theatre techniques to connect with self and others creatively and spontaneously. Through the fictional conflict situation based on real examples, students will ‘sculpt’ three images to not only identify emotions and clarify thinking, but to also rehearse interventions to manage conflicts. This exercise recognises the dynamic nature of emotions in any social situation, and therefore shifts the literature around conflict management and the role of emotions in organisations from a theoretical perspective to an embodied, experiential one. Supplementary notes on a specific case study and the interventions used are provided.Author(s):
