Introduction to Psychodrama

Introduction to Psychodrama

The Theatre of Life - Action, Insight, & Creativity

31 October & 1 November 2026, with Viv Thompson & Martin Putt

Nau mai, Haere mai — Welcome

Join us for an experiential weekend introducing psychodrama and associated group action methods.

Designed for people interested in personal growth and professional development through creative and active models and approaches.

In a spirited group setting, you’ll experience how the stories of our lives - either past, present or future - can come alive through action and reveal patterns, deepen insight, and spark new possibilities for being in the world.

This weekend is perfect for you if you:

  • Are curious about psychodrama and how it works
  • Are thinking about a full-year training in psychodrama with PANZ in 2027
  • Want to refresh or expand your spontaneity, creativity, and effectiveness
  • Work in a people-centred profession such as counselling, teaching, social services, health, organisational development, leadership, or the arts
  • Are looking for meaningful professional development.

Places are limited — early registration recommended
