I second your recommendation on psychodrama and found it to be something that's difficult to describe but that must be experienced. When i tell people about it, they tend to give me a strange look that doesn't improve the more I try to describe it. But I've taken friends to experience it and they now understand what I was excited about. Perhaps I was focused on the manifestations and not the mystery by trying to describe something that must be felt. I guess talking about psychodrama is a little like what Anna Devere Smith says about trying to talk about acting. She says talking about acting is like thinking about swimming. With psychodrama and with acting, you have to jump in to truly experience the mystery and the magic. Excellent post.
