Creating a pre-enactment can take weeks or months, but can be as short as a few hours or a day. Regardless of the complexity, each prehearsal follows similar steps (those in italics are optional): | Creating a pre-enactment can take weeks or months, but can be as short as a few hours or a day.

- | Depending on the needs of your scenario and the time available, make small [[experience prototypes]]. For example, if it is crucial to have a new technology developed for your world to work, think about how you could sketch or prototype or just allude to the way this technology could be used, what it would look like, etc. Find the simplest possible way to prototype or visualise this technology and its use.

- | A day or two after the prehearsal hold a collective debriefing session, where the participants can share their experiences and reflect on the scenario. You can use the questions from Step 12, or an evaluation framework like [[adaptive action]]. Make sure to allow everyone to be heard. You can use a hosting technique such as the [[listening circle]].
