Theatre for Social Change!
My Travel Story
He created theatrical tools and tecniques for the people in a social and participatory way. A revolutionary movement began in terms of theatre and the oppressed people of Brazil were able to voice their opinions about various societal and political issues. So much so, that Boal himself had to exile from his country to Argentina.
His work has had such monumental impact on the way we view theatre as a tool for societal and political change. Revendicating a democratic, free and participatory theatre and society. It has since then been used all over the world. Theatre is not just dancing and prancing but a tool to talk about important issues such as racial profiling, sexism, women's rights, legal issues. His theatre has been transposed almost everywhere, it is even used in businesses as a way of promulgating values of communication.
Having studied the potential of Theatre of the Oppressed I would like to be able to attend training sessions in Barcelona and then travel to India to the Centre of the Theatre of The Oppressed and use theatre in marginalised communities in West Bengal. Many issues concerning women's rights in terms of marriage are present. I would also like to travel to Argentina and Rio to see how different techniques are used there.
This trip would be an enormous educational experience. However I would then be able to bring back all the techniques that I have learnt and share my experiences with others.
I believe that there are many issues in society. However we do have the power to discuss them and to change things. Theatre of the Oppressed techniques are a great tool to see this happen.
Please support me in my journey for change.
Regards,
Yasmina.
