Enactments are Stage 3 activities that bring the fictional Worlds to life through embodied practice and performance.
Enactments build on either Stage 1 Worlds or Stage 2 Explorations – sometimes the prototype itself, sometimes the discussions involved in its development. Each World can be developed into an unlimited number of Enactments.
The reports on this page provide a window into a range of fascinating Enactments that have been staged in diverse settings.
