We’ve been commissioned by Active Inquiry<\/a> to document this unique approach to working through social problems with theatre workshops and show production. Combining a trinity of charities whose aid goes to the addicted, afflicted, abused, homeless and socially marginalized, the project aims to add another aspect for dealing with these issues that are prevalent in modern culture.\u00a0We’ll be making videos for each organisation and a longer film detailing the project and it’s development with the individuals involved. Watch this space!<\/p>\n

The Blurb<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I want the Spectator to take on the role of Actor and invade the Character and the Stage. I want them to occupy their own space and offer solutions”<\/span><\/em>\u00a0–Augusto Boal<\/span><\/p>\n

Spect-Act<\/span>\u00a0is a two-year project with the goal of developing a network of\u00a0Theatre of the Oppressed<\/a>\u00a0companies in Edinburgh. The techniques of the Theatre of the Oppressed blur the lines between actor and audience and offer a space for dialogue and building knowledge.<\/p>\n

Active Inquiry<\/span>\u00a0has been working with groups from\u00a0 The Bethany Trust<\/a>,\u00a0 Shakti Women’s Aid<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0 The Alma Project<\/a>\u00a0to create unique pieces of theatre exploring issues of relevance to the participants.<\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone who came along to our public event on 21st May.<\/p>\n

The podcast from this event is\u00a0 now available<\/a>. For more information about getting involved with Spect-Act please\u00a0 contact Active Inquiry<\/a>.<\/p>\n
