Invisible Theatre

Invisible Theatre


For this weeks lecture on Politics, Vanessa has asked me and Anna (and Jack, I think?) to come up with a short piece of Invisible Theatre.
As Invisible Theatre was designed as a form of protest (Theatre of the Oppressed, Augusto Boal and Panagiotis Assimakopoulos) it would make sense to come up with a piece that may be reflected in the lecture.
Invisible Theatre is not a form of Candid Camera etc, as this type of 'theatre' has nothing to do with showing oppression within society.

I think the location might be key to our performance. Perhaps within the lecture, but I also wonder if it might be interesting to do it outside the lecture hall?

Anyone got any ideas?

  1. I think a good place to do it would be in the middle of the lecture, like an intervention or comment on something that vanessa has said that you can then provoke discussion from other students taking part in the lecture? just an idea :-)
