Theatre Of The Oppressed Workshop With Tony Cealy

This workshop will be a playful mix of essential games and techniques from the arsenal of Theatre Of The Oppressed.  Theatre of the Oppressed is a collection of innovative theatre techniques and games created with the intention to motivate people and create space for social and behavioural change.  It was created in the 1970’s by Brazilian Theatre practioner Augosto Boal.  In this workshop you will be expertly led by Tony Cealy. Tony is a drama facilitator, theatre practitioner, arts activist, agitator and creative producer. Facilitating in a safe and comfortable way Tony will use a range of techniques from The Theatre Of The Oppressed arsenal.  Working with entertaining, metaphor-generating games and activities takes participants out of everyday situations to explore, challenge and provide possible solutions to limitations within oneself and the wider community.

We’re thrilled Tony is bringing his skills and many years of experience to Antidote.

“The purpose of Theatre of the Oppressed is to rehumanize humanity.” Augusto Boal
