Forum theatre

-interactive theatre that involves and engages

Forum theatre is for those who want to get an important message across or highlight a problem in an involving and engaging way.

Forum theatre

By using a bespoke dramatic play we can reflect your reality and involve you in the solution. A message has a far greater effect and can be more easily remembered when it is conveyed through experiences. Participants take greater ownership of the process when they are involved in a problem played out in the forum theatre. This form of training provides a frame of reference for all participants and can often lead to revelations!

”Forum theatre really plays an important role in a course because it informally creates an in-road to a subject which may be difficult to approach in other ways. But it is important to stress that this recognition is not without conditions: the impact of this method is hugely dependent on the actor’s professionalism which, in Theatre TurnAround’s case is indisputable.”
Mikael Bonde Nielsen, Communications Director, Coca-Cola Nordic Services.

Forum theatre is ideal for staff days or larger arrangements and can be used for change management, customer service, values, leadership and sales etc.
