Summary/Abstract: Based on practical experience working as a museum educator at the Hallwyl Museum I will in the following show how the use of drama methodology can lower the threshold for visitor engagement, and how it can be used in taking on difficult subjects. I will treat the Hallwyl Museum’s use of the method, give advice on what to take into consideration when building a script, and discuss advantages found in practicing this method.
