Forum Theatre

This 2024 workshop series featured newcomers to the region. Exploring themes of belonging through Augusto Boal’s world-renowned Theatre of the Oppressed practice, the audience had a chance to rewind the performances and step in to mitigate circumstances of oppression and conflict. Led by Larissa Coser (pictured) this was a popular event with many fringe patrons.
