Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Invisible theater
is a form of theatrical performance that is enacted in a place where
people would not normally expect to see one, for example in the street
or in a shopping centre. The performers attempt to disguise the fact
that it is a performance from those who observe and who may choose to
participate in it, encouraging the spectators to view it as a real
event. The Brazilian theater practitioner Augusto Boal developed the
form during his time in Argentina in the 1970s as part of his Theater of
the Oppressed, which focused on oppression and social issues. Boal went
on to develop forum theater. A similar form of „micro-theater“ was
portrayed by Samuel R. Delany in his science-fiction novel Triton. The
leader of the ‚micro-theater‘ was a woman named „The Spike“.
