Forum Theater is a basic technical and performance form of Theater of the Oppressed, a theatrical method inspired by the Brazilian director Augusto Boal, as a reaction to the oppressive and dictatorial regimes of Latin America in the 60s. It is a form of theatre that results from the experiences and needs of the people who apply it.

The spectator is placed at the center of the theatrical act, aiming for their participation and reflection. Through theatrical action, they are empowered to take a stand on social issues that concern them. They try to find possible solutions to a problem and think of strategies to manage a situation. Of course, all this takes place on stage, in a safe context, which enables them to do "a rehearsal for real life."

In this particular workshop, the participants will recognize basic aspects of Theater of the Oppressed and will focus on Forum Theatre. They will become familiar with basic techniques and tools, improvise through games and exercises, and explore various characters by co-creating Forum scenes.

"Theater itself is not considered revolutionary, it is perceived as a test for 'rebellion'. The implementation of Forum Theater evokes a sense of imperfection, which seeks completion in actual action. It's basically a rehearsal for real life, on stage."
— Augusto Boal
