Theatr Fforwm Cymru provides safe, educative, energising and empowering environments where everyone can learn together

Now Available!  A Toolkit for Emotional Intelligence, published by Theatr Fforwm Cymru.

In 2006, Theatr Fforwm Cymru produced a DVD which aimed t demonstrate the elements of a Theatr Fforwm Cymru workshop focusing on emotional intelligence, and culminating in a demonstration of exactly how a piece of forum theatre was developed from a participant’s experience (in this case, a story about unfair treatment in a school). From this, Fforwm’s Director, Gill Dowsett, wrote a visionary, in-depth, step-by-step guide to the techniques used by Theatr Fforwm Cymru in working with a diverse range of groups. The guide contains both theory and practical advice, and covers everything from the importance of the circle to the practicalities of working as a facilitator, and supplemented by a directory of the games that Theatr Fforwm has gathered over the years.

In a very real sense, this handbook represents Theatr Fforwm Cymru’s “gold” - practical, readable and invaluable for anyone wanting to focus on emotional intelligence in a creative and engaging way. The handbook and DVD complement one another and are fully cross-referenced—read the section and then watch the DVD for practical demonstrations.

The handbook has now been published, and is available to purchase from Theatr Fforwm Cymru priced £50 + P&P
