The Theatre of the Oppressed: Using Performance to Challenge Injustice

The Theatre of the Oppressed is a revolutionary form of participatory theatre that began in the 1960s and 70s in Brazil. Created by visionary theatre practitioner Augusto Boal, it uses performance as a vehicle for promoting critical thinking and social and political change. At its core, the Theatre of the Oppressed aims to transform the passive audience into active “spect-actors” who can observe…

Initial Ideas & Planning

I took some time today to start planning my negotiated project before the academic year begins and I decided I'd like to use the time to explore a variety of opposing emotional concepts.

Often, making decisions is what I find most difficult so I decided to narrow-down which emotional concepts I will use for the performance project. I also decided that I want to use poetry with image theatre in order to make a literal translation of the metaphors held within the poetry.

This means that not only will the content (oppositional emotional concepts, aka. positive vs negative) be contradictory, but that the artistic materials and performance devices will also reflect the theme of contradiction. This feels so satisfying, I think probably because the artistic intentions for the aesthetics and composition of the work are very clear and compliment the content.

I am SO EXCITED to get started!!

These two pages work amazingly to show just how unfulfilling a "normal" life can be, as well as showing just how little either of them really know of whats "normal"

#manga #csm #chainsaw man #csm spoilers #chainsaw man manga spoilers #chainsaw man manga #csm manga #chainsaw man spoilers #csm manga spoilers #I think part of what makes it work so well for me is the fact that this still isnt normal #theyre trying to be normal by skipping class and going to a movie but the circumstances in which its happening is fundamentally abnormal #an empty movie theatre with a devil corpse #it works amazingly to show just how impossible it is for either of them to truly be normal #also the last panel is really a well designed 'isolated in a crowd' image

#lesbians (me) were harmed in the making of this image #This is the impact of the bar being IN HELL and then one (1) woman wearing trousers dropping #And by god did she drop. Talking about theatre (evilly)#Anyway hi how are you I'm feeling normal.#genshin impact #arlecchino #my art

my les mis hot take is that the idealogical conflict between valjean and javert is much more compelling in the musical than in the brick. obviously they share the overarching idea of forgiveness vs. punishment, but hugo writes it as a very straightforward "good guy christian and bad guy atheist" whereas the musical offers, in my opinion, a much more interesting juxtaposition of worldviews. characterizing javert as devoutly religious makes their conflict that of two different interpretations of christianity: black-and-white, fire-and-brimstone legalism vs. love and forgiveness. that, to me, is what makes valjean and javert such compelling foils and parallels to one another.

#bee posts nonsense #les mis #theatre #they're mirror images! two sides of the same coin! and the musical is absolutely genius in how it portrays that #both from a narrative perspective and a musical perspective #i could go on for hours about it

[ID: 6 circular matching icons of tatiana slozhno and agent curt mega from spies are forever. the first two show tatiana (first) and curt (second) facing each other with serious expressions, both of them wearing leather jackets. the next two show curt (third) and tatiana (fourth) standing back to back, looking directly at the camera and aiming their guns to the side; curt is wearing a suit, and tatiana is wearing a blue dress. in the final two, tatiana (fifth) and curt (sixth) are sitting side-by-side, smiling at each other; tatiana is wearing a purple knitted jumper, and curt is wearing a grey t-shirt. all of the icons' backgrounds have been edited to be in black and white. /End ID]
