The Theatre of Spontaneity is on the last Friday in February, February 29 not 22 as is written on some flyers. In March, the date is set for March 14 due to Easter, its the third last Friday not second last, as is written in some flyers. The dates in the PIM program (orange booklet) are correct. Sue Daniel is conducting the February event and Nikki Alderman is conducting the March event.
The 1st Meeting for 2008 of the Moreno Psychodrama Society is on Sunday 16 March from 2 - 5 p.m. Included on the "action" oriented agenda is our recent joining as an affiliate organisation of the International Association of Group Psychotherapy and Group Processes (IAGP) and an exploration whether to take a further step in our long held aim to join PACFA (Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia). Of course, there will be afternoon tea, cakes as usual. Do bring something to add to the table. RSVP 9416 3779.
The Reading Group gets going Friday 29 February, (12.30 - 2 p.m) same day as the Theatre of Spontaneity (7.30 - 10.30 p.m). The announcement for the Reading Group, with details of this event is below. I am leading the first session and the subject I've chosen for discussion is:
"The Function of the Psychodramatic Director" - reference, pages 252 -259, Psychodrama Vol. 1 (1946) Student edition 1994.
There are five essential elements in the psychodrama method; the Protagonist, the Director, the Auxiliary Ego, the Audience and The Therapeutic Stage. In this session the focus is on the role of the Director. Dr. J. L Moreno, the founder of psychodrama maintained that the Director has three functions; producer, chief therapist (referred to and described by some as the role of the clinician) and social analyst.
