Theatre games  - No ACTING EXPERIENCE REQUIRED!

It is is a playful, funny, pleasurable way to connect with an ensemble of people in the game of storytelling, creating our own artful

theatre to evoke community healing. Theatre for Living is the art and science of community-based dialogue created by David Diamond and available in monthly workshops here in Perth.

Date 10th May 2025 Saturday

11am - 2pm at North Fremantle Community Hall

Theatre Games workshops turn our collective stories into theatre.

Theatre Games uses games from Theatre of the Oppressed and Theatre for Living.

Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) is a social justice theatre that came out of Sao Paulo Brazil. Founder of TO, Augusto Boal developed a series of imaginative theatre exercises which promote awareness. As a result, we can see our social situation, its limitations, individual attitudes and even how our bodies are bound by traditions and cultures. Theatre for Living adds Systems Theory to TO - we are all connected.

Theatre Games workshops is an everyday theatre for actors and non-actors. Therefore, it's for anyone who wants to enjoy building a community. The exercises and games while fun and playful, strengthen the psyche and feed the soul and change your life for the better.

Above all, theatre games are wonderful. Firstly, theatre games access our senses and our creative mind. Secondly, we use our bodies to make shapes, gestures, sounds and movements. Thirdly, we witness our stories together in ways that surprise and delight.
Theatre Games dissolves stress. As a result, we feel safe in the ensemble. We can share our stories and our place in the community.

This work is inspiring to actors and non-actors, artists, community leaders, teachers and anyone who wants to find new resources inside themselves and their group. Above all, Theatre for Living (David Diamond) takes Theatre of the Oppressed, to a new level in the art and science of community-based dialogue.
What people are saying:

"Theatre for Living workshops create a place of safety and acceptance in a group experience of acting and acting out ( not just thinking or talking about it). Situations in my life or one of the others are represented by images. Language is taken out of it. An experienced Facilitator/Joker helps to empower me to make and step toward change to what I want in that situation in my life. WOW!".
