Come spend a Saturday afternoon with La Xixa!

You will be able to enjoy the fruit of the creative and reflection processes carried out by different groups of Teatre Fòrum de Barcelona throughout the year.

​

In particular, we will have Forum Theater works from the group "Dinamizers/rs of Intersectional Forum Theater", and the "Great Community Knowledge and Forum Theater" Group.

​

How does the Forum Theater work? 

At Teatre Fòrum, the actors and actresses develop a short piece of theater based on the collectivization of the participants' own experiences (actresses and actors).

In this play, there are several characters who play different roles: the oppressed, the oppressor, the allies and the Curinga. The Curinga is the character who interacts with the public, that is, with the spectators. The postulate of the piece is that the oppressed always has the capacity to act to confront the oppressor. At the moment of greatest conflict, the Joker or Curinga stops the piece (STOP!). Through open dialogue on the part of the audience, alternatives are proposed to try to solve the conflict on stage. That's when the Curinga invites   the spectator to replace one of the characters on stage. As many alternatives are tested as proposals arise.
