Howto
When a group needs to come to some deeper understanding of an issue, event or activity
1. For each team sharing their activity, event, etc. divide the team into two sub groups. One subgroup takes the roles (people, objects, places, etc.) and re-enact what happened or a scene from different angles.
2. The other team members narriate the story of the event or clarify why it happened, how it happened, what the outcomes were and the conclusion.
3. This can be done for each perspective that should be investigated.
4. Lead a discussion about the enactment.
