BIBLIODRAMA
Bibliodrama
is
a powerful experiential technique developed by Dr Peter Pitzele of the
US, whose book, Scripture
Windows, taught me how to apply it. Despite its name,
Bibliodrama does not involve acting. Instead,
it draws the participants gently into a direct engagement with the
text and leads to fascinating, even startling results.
Participants become insightful commentators, creating together a form
of spontaneous "Modern Midrash."
