Celebrity House Party, or the Networking Role-Playing Game: Using Theatre as a Tool to Increase Social Emotional Learning in Adults with a Focus on Building Success in the Business Sector
Reddick, Ronica; Smith, Daniel Leeman
Teaching Artist Journal, v18 n1-2 p45-78 2020
In this article, we present a case study review of an educational, semi-collaborative role-playing game designed to provide participants the opportunity to practice soft skills identified by industry leaders as vital to one's success in the business sector. We discuss the successes of using theatre techniques as a gymnasium for social emotional learning outside of the context of theatre making and outline best practices for this pedagogical approach.
