A playful, profound exploration into power and responsibility.

Join Worms Theatre Company in collaboration with Laura Singer for an 8-week Theatre of the Oppressed course: a space to question, dream, create, and rehearse the revolution together.

Every Monday 5 - 7pm, 27th April - 20th June at the Trinity Centre.

Across these eight weeks, our closed group will journey through movement, sound, aesthetics, crisis, hope and world-dreaming. Together we will choose the central question we want to explore, and through collaborative improvisation and embodied inquiry we will create an original Forum Theatre play. This piece will grow directly from the stories, experiences and ideas of the participants themselves.

This course offers a fresh, funky approach — blending clowning, improvisation, play and physical exploration — inviting us to slow down, step out, stand up, take power, and engage in joyful rebellion. It asks us to move beyond hierarchy and into responsibility: to witness the world as it is, and to summon the trickster who dances in the cracks of what could be.
