Working creatively and compassionately with the drama of conflict

Conflict and confrontation can destroy our capacities to work and live productively together. On the one hand conflict is a healthy part of life, we need conflict to grow, adapt and deal with change. On the other hand conflict, like fire, can burn and destroy. It is not conflict itself that is the problem, it’s how we deal with it.

Over several years I have worked in the voluntary sector, health sector, industry, teaching in schools, the theatre and Higher Education. During this time I have been developing practical, accessible and non intimidating ways of using drama, role play, storytelling to address conflict issues in a wide range of contexts.

I have created a number of flexible frameworks that enable groups of people in education, industry, the public services and a range of training settings to explore conflict in a non threatening, creative and collaborative way. The workshops can be tailor made to your needs, are accessible and provide approaches that enable the exploration of potentially highly charged situations within a serious but playful framework.

Workshops are flexible, can be tailor made to your needs and can take place over a full or half day.
