Forum Theatre training with Julian Boal September 2008
ACTive INquiry seeks to be an advocate for the work of Augusto Boal and the Theatre of the Oppressed in Scotland by offering various training workshops for artists and other professionals. Like all our practice, we seek to keep our training at the cutting edge of the work.
Upcoming Training:
The Art of the Joker
This 2 day workshop will explore how to successfully Joker a piece of Forum Theatre. What does the Joker do before, during and after a piece of Forum? What is their relationship to the actors and to the audience? What questions should they be asking? What do they do if no one wants to come up on stage?! Participants will get the chance to Joker a current piece of Forum Theatre from Active Inquiry.
Although this workshop will also explore the structure of Forum Theatre it is expected that participants will have some knowledge of this before attending the workshop.
We plan to offer this Training Course in 2012. Please contact us if you are interested.
