PSYCHODRAMAAbstract
The definitive history of Group Psychotherapy and Psychodrama has not been written yet. It is, however, no great strain on any one's imagination to foresee that the history-to-he-written will try to elucidate the historical sources of Moreno's ample construct, the synchronic milieu, the gradual development of Moreno's own ideas, and the influence they in turn have exercised on contemporaneity and posterity. The history will also contain, to a greater or lesser extent, something of the struggle, despair and triumph woven into the personal, intimate lives of Moreno and his close associates. The most celebrated couple modern psychotherapy has produced were on one of their many demonstration tours and had made a stop in California. The Los Angeles audience which participated, Sunday, May 18, 1958, in a workshop headed by J . L . and Zerka Moreno had unexpectedly witnessed the making of a significant footnote to that future history, and this is a frankly non-reportorial account of the memorable incident.
