Futures-Inspired Embodied Transformation Theatre is a creative method that enhances imagination and enables a dynamic and embodied reflection about regenerative futures. Futures-Inspired Embodied Transformation Theatre combines existing methods of Social Presencing Theatre (Hayashi and Ricardo 2021) and the Three Horizons Framework (Sharpe et al. 2016). The Social Presencing Theatre is a method that belongs to a broader approach called Theory U (Scharmer 2009). The theory U emphasizes that there is a greatly overlooked blind spot in initiatives that aim to facilitate any societal change: consciousness and awareness of the self and its relation to the qualities of open will, open heart, and open mind (Scharmer 2009). Social Presencing Theatre can make the invisible social structures and assumptions more tangible through a collective exercise of a facilitated theatre play, for instance, through the Stuck Exercise. The Stuck Exercise is a Social Presencing Theatre method (Hayashi and Ricardo 2021) where participants express themselves through different movements and by creating motionless sculptures of their bodies that represent their experience and feelings of anything they feel stuck with, which will be changed to a new sculpture that symbolizes the unstuck.

摘要

Futures-Inspired Embodied Transformation Theatre is a creative method that enhances imagination and enables a dynamic and embodied reflection about regenerative futures. Futures-Inspired Embodied Transformation Theatre combines existing methods of Social Presencing Theatre (Hayashi and Ricardo 2021) and the Three Horizons Framework (Sharpe et al. 2016). The Social Presencing Theatre is a method that belongs to a broader approach called Theory U (Scharmer 2009). The theory U emphasizes that there is a greatly overlooked blind spot in initiatives that aim to facilitate any societal change: consciousness and awareness of the self and its relation to the qualities of open will, open heart, and open mind (Scharmer 2009). Social Presencing Theatre can make the invisible social structures and assumptions more tangible through a collective exercise of a facilitated theatre play, for instance, through the Stuck Exercise. The Stuck Exercise is a Social Presencing Theatre method (Hayashi and Ricardo 2021) where participants express themselves through different movements and by creating motionless sculptures of their bodies that represent their experience and feelings of anything they feel stuck with, which will be changed to a new sculpture that symbolizes the unstuck.
