Our History

Using Mythodrama as a leadership development intervention began for us in 1997.

With colleagues at the Globe theatre [London] we studied Shakespeare’s great plays as maps of human development. After directing Henry V for the opening season of the Globe, we had the idea to present a Mythodrama experience to business leaders. We were encouraged by business guru Charles Handy and poet David Whyte

 

Participants at these workshops said the Mythodrama approach had a transformational effect. Their feedback was overwhelmingly positive, highlighting how they were caught-up with Henry’s story and how easy it was to reflect on their own situation and experiences through the story.

How they could rehearse new ideas and behaviours in the space created by the drama and under the inspiration of the actors/tutors in the room.

 

This client affirmation was our "call to adventure", it was the excitement and positive energy we needed to make the move into Leadership Development from our actor/theatre pasts.

In the subsequent ten years, we have grown our team of theatre-trained consultants and have helped senior executives around the world to practise their potentials and develop their characters.
