This psychodrama workshop examines how small contextual differences can completely transform the emotional meaning of similar life events. By combining acting and writing, participants explore the contrast between vacation and immigration while strengthening empathy, awareness, and perspective-taking skills. The workshop is structured as an experiential process rather than a theoretical lecture, allowing participants to directly feel how the same action can carry very different emotional significance depending on its frame.  
 
The workshop will consist of 2 phases: The first is Acting, the second is Writing & Reflecting
