Acting up: theatre as an agent for change
Buy tickets
Actors – find out how you can use your skills to become an agent for change!
Forum theatre is a fusion of politics and drama, using improvisation to act out real world problems to give citizens the chance to explore and act out solutions to social and environmental issues. This form of citizen assembly was invented and perfected by Augusta Boal in Brazil, where it was put to use in the national Parliament resulting in more than 300 laws being changed.
Acclaimed Acting Teacher Dave Lovatt will be hosting a 3-hour forum theatre masterclass, to show you how to harness this very powerful method of problem-solving.
If you’d like to be guaranteed a place, sign up in advance by emailing Dave on davelovattsactingclass@gmail.
At the end, there will be a short performance where we then present this problem dramatically to an audience, who will be asked to ‘live’ change that situation, until a resolution is found – making the life of the characters more sustainable.
