The Actors aren’t actors, the plays are really meant as dress rehearsals for real life, and before the curtains come down the audience takes the stage as ‘spec-actors’. NY DAILY NEWS These brainstorming sessions are not abstract. The Playwrights, producers and actors are all people who are marginalized in one way or another, They are homeless people with AIDS, victims of domestic abuse and undocumented immigrants. TIKKUN DAILY With chapters in 70 countries, Theatre of the Oppressed is an “an interactive, physical, and playful tool used to investigate situations in which we are denied our basic rights, personally and collectively,” according to its website. The audience gets to see scenarios from oppressed people’s lives, feel a solidarity with the actors, and mull possible solutions. BOSTON UNIVERSITY BOSTONIA |
