What Change!

To change the problem of the oppressor vs. the oppressed, there would have to be push to reach this Forum, Image, and Invisible Theatre to people that we give power to. If we could either bring them to the performance or convince them that this is the way to really hear the people. I feel if we carry these types of theatre, we can make more impact for the people, and these form are, from what I see, contain a thought out process to effectively present an issue are problem rather than Activism. There is something that is said with visuals rather than performing an action for a purpose like Activism. I know that when I see something visually it stick with me and possibly create an emotional reaction for me. Now, to forward this theatre to the powerful, we would have to create movement with the people of that community.      

Theatre will never stop being the answer because there is an idea that is presented, and people like to voice their opinion through some form. The way that we approach the theatre these ideas are different but the question I would ask is theatre making changes that we as performers, audience, and creator of theatre are satisfied? Is theatre making an actual change that we can see and can implement in that change with true intentions of it being reality in our performances? I would answer this question with when I can see the change not only in reality, but a translated form of this change in reality in theatre this is when I will be satisfied.
