Hi, I haven't had the chance to play with the dramaturgical reading idea in depth yet, but will definitely post when I do. It's a recent train of thought. Here's a link to a slideshow I uploaded that has a little more detail about what I was thinking/getting at though its still the high level ideas. (the "embodied" character being the concept of doing dramaturgical reading) http://www.slideshare.net/treygd/workplace-theatre
Your other comment about improv is definitely a fantastic next logical thought, but why not even the design team participate/run the exercises! Not that actors aren't great :) But the best experience you'll get from it is getting up on your feet and doing it yourself. I have actually done some playing around with some improv exercises for character development (can share more about exactly what kind if you want) and they have proved helpful.
