A event held at The Trinity Centre on Wednesday 14th October. The event starts at 17:00.
A playful, profound exploration into power and responsibility.
Worms Theatre Company's 10-week Theatre of the Oppressed course: a space to question, dream, create, and rehearse the revolution together. Culminating in a forum performance, devised by the participants and showcased at Trinity Centre.
Every Wednesday 5-7pm from 14th October - 16th December at the Trinity Centre.
Across these 10 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 journey invites us to move beyond hierarchy and into responsibility and to summon the trickster who dances in the cracks of what could be.
Who is it for?
Everyone is welcome. We welcome members of the LGBTQI+ community, including non-binary and trans participants, as well as people with lived experience of marginalisation, neurodiversity, and physical restrictions. We especially invite non-actors, people who are curious, playful, questioning, or longing for new ways of seeing and being. It is crucial that you can attend at least 6 of the 8 workshops and performance.
