The heart of psychodrama takes two forms. The first is the heart of the method and the second is the heart of the philosophy. The heart of the method is quite simple and easily recognisable.  It involves the representation of one's inner world in a symbolic outer form so it can be seen clearly and worled withj dorectly in action. As many therapists who have borrowed from Moreno’s psychodramatic techniques have discovered, the impact of such techniques is diminished unless they are married to the philosophy. The heart of psychodrama philosophy is Moreno’s vision of human beings as active, potent participants in life, involved as existentially-free creative beings in a here and now exploration of being in a world that is both infinite and unknown. Though this vision is appealing, it is another matter to know and trust oneself in this way, living in the here and now, not knowing what will happen next.

In creating a therapeutic theatre, Moreno paid particular attention to the stage as a place to live freely (1994:a). The unique advantage of psychodrama is that it can depict life in all its light and its darkness. That is, it has the capacity to work with what is real. Showing what is real on a stage is “the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being” (Thornton Wilder 1957).

The mirror in the tale of Snow White can only speak the truth. The story hinges on the Queen’s question to the mirror and her fury in response to what she hears. It is the question itself that sets up all that follows for Snow White, and it is a question that is relevant to every human self because all human beings seek mirroring in some form or another. Do we, like the Queen, simply want to be affirmed or do we want to know something new or real about ourselves? What do we want to be mirrored for? How do we go about getting the mirroring we want? What do we do when get unwanted mirroring?

In this workshop, we will explore the significance of the stage of the mirror and the technique of mirroring, how mirroring can be used effectively in psychodramatic production and the range of responses that might arise.

The value of role theory is that is produces living pictures of the self, which assist a person to gain a more objective picture of their functioning at any relevant moment. These are generally moments when they are unaware of how they are being and what they are doing. The point is for the individual to develop a greater sense of themselves, stimulate their creativity and continue to expand their progressive functioning. This is a vision of creative living, one that effectively progresses their life purpose. As Clayton put it, “life provides countless opportunities to combine astute analysis with the creative element in a person’s functioning” (1993:1).

In this workshop, we will explore role theory, specifically the impact of role perceptions in here and now interactions and the use of role analysis to deepen our understanding of individual role structures and role relations between individuals.

The self is what a person is, and role is what a person does. Moreno saw the self as a mystery that could best be approached through role, its tangible forms. Hence his theory of personality is based on roles and role structures. Moreno was clear that the self emerges from roles (1972:iii) and that, before there can be an experience of a sense of 'me' and 'I', the precursor and partial roles strive to cluster and become unified. The recognition of 'me' as a separate being indicates that there is sufficient unification to support a sense of self.

Leadership:  This can be in formal and informal settings. We are all confronted with life situations when we are called for to show leadership. The question is when to speak up and when to be silent. When to act and when not to act.

The Psychodrama method assists us to look as situations and to practise different responses that take the situation forward and into healthy responses. The method allow a person to free themselves from old dysfunctional habits to bring to the foreground abilities , spontaneity and an expression that enhances one's formal leadership roles.

We will experiment through the use of actions methods to explore different situations that allows one's true ability to come forward. It will allow a person to learn to stand alone in confidence that their leadership takes the group or organisation forward towards their stated goals.
