In his keynote lecture, "On Old Forms in New Times: Theatre of the Oppressed in the XXI Century," Julian Boal will engage in discussions that explore the nexus between theory and performance practice. This presentation intends to foster critical reflection, emotional engagement, and potential action as a community to address social (in)equities of race, ethnicity, and gender, as well as the crucial role of the arts in exposing these issues.Julian Boal is a Brazilian professor, theater researcher and playwright. He is a recognized practitioner of Theatre of the Oppressed (TO). He has facilitated workshops in more than 25 countries in the past 17 years. He has also curated and coordinated several international festivals of TO. He is co-founder and pedagogical coordinator of Escola de Teatro Popular (ETP, in Rio de Janeiro), a school run by social movements for social movements where political unity is practiced at the grassroots level through the practice of theatre. In Boal's latest book, Theatre of the Oppressed and Its Times (Routledge, 2023), Julian Boal argues that political theatre, like any kind of political action, can only be judged in relation to the political moment in which it tries to intervene. How do contemporary understandings of concepts like oppression, representation, participation, and emancipation shape TO today? Highlighting the pitfalls of reducing oppression to one-to-one relationships, the book proposes a version of Forum Theatre dramaturgy that portrays oppression as a defining structure of societies. - Nov 66:00 PMChili with LilyToday's Events | Chapel House, Chapel House Library
