ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the methods for dramatizing the fairy tale: group invention, chain-story, halted story, targeted stories and so on. Group invention is one of the forms of an introductory warm-up. A variant of chain-story method, which helps stimulate the attention and memory of the group, is to ask the children to repeat the words proposed by the previous children before adding their own contribution. The halted story method consists of asking the first narrator to tell a fragment of the story. The next narrator follows by negating something of significance that was said just before. This method lets the children express their opposition to another child or to some affirmation by the psychodramatist, if he is the one who had the floor. The therapists choose and propose a story that allows the group to approach the problem in a symbolic mode.
