International Practitioner Masterclass

The variety of contexts in which TO has flowered across the world is tribute to its power and diversity. As such, many brilliant and original practitioners have emerged and gone on to lead work in their own context, stamped with their own individual genius. STOP will endeavour to showcase this diversity, inviting practitioners from across four continents to share their take on TO.

The first in this ongoing series of masterclasses will be Chen Allon, co-founder of Combatants for Peace in Israel/Palestine, which works to confront the violence of that conflict, using theatre as a tool for understanding and reconciliation. Allon’s own version of TO, the Polarised Theatre of the Oppressed, bravely invites participants to experience the lives of others and to discover and confront their own prejudices. Dates and booking details for the international masterclass will be available in November 2022.

We hope future guests will include Julian Boal, Katy Rubin, Luc Oppdebeeck, Sanjoy Ganguly, Mohammadou Diol and many others.
