What is a good friend?

"A little violence also hurts"

With over 350 performances nationwide, What Is a Good Friend? is one of our most requested school programs. Designed for ages 7–19, it blends theatre, creativity, and active participation.

Through interactive Form Theatre (IFT) scenes, students explore friendship, respect, bullying, exclusion, threats, and violence, working together to find positive solutions and making learning truly engaging and memorable.


IFT's value-based work must always include both students reflection and activity.

Why do students enjoy Interactive Form of Theatre?

The students create and shape the performances together, reflect, ask questions, and share experiences.

By exploring different perspectives, they become solution-focused and engaged both inside and outside the classroom moving from being spectators to active participants in addressing conflicts and challenges.

The classroom visits always begin with an open discussion where students reflect on their thoughts and experiences related to the current theme

What is Interactive Form of Theatre?

IFT is a values-based educational tool designed to foster creativity, reflection, and collaboration.

Students are actively involved in the performance, influencing the story without being on stage, and in the process develop creative and solution-oriented thinking.

Each performance is shaped by the audience and built upon four fundamental pillars.


Using Interactive form of theatre to foster creativity, reflection, and positive change

This method fosters creativity, critical thinking, and teamwork, as the students take on roles such as writers, directors, and actors (not on stage), creating a shared experience that addresses real-life issues like bullying, social challenges, and personal growth. The focus is on using theatre as a tool to promote reflection, activity and positive change in a supportive and inclusive environment.
