Intro to Performance Studies
Forum theatre is an interactive form of performance that invites audience participation to explore and address social issues through improvisation and discussion. It encourages spectators to become 'spect-actors,' who can intervene in the performance, altering the narrative to find solutions or provoke dialogue about real-life challenges. This form of theatre connects deeply with various disciplines, as it combines elements of drama, education, and community engagement, while serving as a powerful tool for social critique.
