O Teatro Fórum como dispositivo de discussão da violência contra a mulher

This article presents the results of a study that made use of the Theatre of the Oppressed, in its Forum Theatre form, to promote discussions and reflections on violence against women. This was achieved through a sketch about the theme shown to a group of recyclable material collectors from two towns in the interior of the State of São Paulo. In the Forum Theatre the spectators become actors/actresses and, through the activity, help to find a solution for the enacted conflict. The results of the study suggest that the Theatre of the Oppressed can be used as an important methodological procedure for research. In the field of Psychology specifically, this theatrical tool emerges as an alternative device in order to work with participative studies involving diverse themes and issues of a community, producing ruptures in hegemonic practices and discourses.
