What this is

This is a community theatre workshop, focusing on othering & how it affects ourselves and those around us.

Why is this important

We all carry stories of belonging and exclusion. In this workshop, we'll look at both sides:

moments when we've been seen as "the other," reduced to a label or assumption; and
moments when we've seen or treated others through those same filters.

Together, we'll create with our real experiences of othering and use theatre to open collective dialogue: How does othering play out between us? What keeps it alive? What might change if we acted differently?

Facilitators: Hector Aristizábal (Re-Conectando Colombia) & Xris Reardon (Third Way Theatre, Hobart & Vic)

The workshop will be broken into two parts,

Part A: (20-21st of Nov), focuses on building trust, connecting through theatre techniques l

Part B: (24th-26th of Nov). Furthering the conversation with the potential to host a Forum Theatre dialogue (more on Forum Theatre when we gather).
