Courseday: Introduction to theatre of the oppressed
Sunday September 27th 10.00-17.00
It's time for our course again! This time the content of the course will be put in one day that is completely in the theme of theatre of the oppressed (TO). Meet the Inspringtheater community and learn the basics of the methodology of TO: from image theatre to forum theatre, we'll be doing a lot of different things.
Thanks to your input the content of the course is different every time. So even if you did the course in the past, it can definitely be a valuable day for you (and we'd love to see you again).
Send an e-mail to st.inspringtheater@wur.nl to register.
Costs: Free price between €20 and €90.
Tip: You can already read about the theatre of the oppressed on our website: https://www.inspringtheater.nl/en/about-inspringtheater/forum-theatre-oppressed
Course day: Joker Course
Sunday October 25th 10.00-17.00
After the introduction course we immediately continue with the joker course! After in the introduction course you learned about the methodology and you acted in the theatre of the oppressed, in this course you'll go a step futher and you'll learn how to joker a TO-event.
The joker is the one who is facilitating TO: offering the right exercises at the right moment, asking the right questions and guiding the jumping in.

Costs: Free price between €20 and €90.
Jump in session
The jump in sessions are a low key opportunity to get to know the Inspringtheater community, to get a bit familiar with the techniques of Theater of the Oppressed and also to release some stress and have a proper energizing break in the middle or at the end of your day. The jump in sessions are alternating during daytime or in the evening. The sessions during daytime take place on the Wageningen University Campus in the Amfitheater, an outside space between the buildings Aurora and Impulse. The sessions in the evening are in the Clockhouse building at the Generaal Foulkesweg 37.

PAST EVENTS
Speak up to your mates!
Inspringtheater and Purple Group are putting together a 4-session program where we’ll use the Theatre of the Oppressed to explore and navigate difficult conversations. We’ll focus especially on those tricky moments when someone close to you is behaving in an unacceptable way (for example around sexual harassment or abuse) and how to actually speak up in those situations.
We’ll be working with the methodology of the Theatre of the Oppressed, which uses theatre as a really practical and interactive tool to understand real-life situations. It’s not about acting, but more about experimenting, stepping into different roles and collectively finding ways to respond, interrupt harmful dynamics and support each other better.
4 Thursday evenings: April 2d, April 16th, April 30th & May14th, 19.00-21.30 (attendence of all the sessions is required)
Only for people living in Droevendaal, All genders, Donation based
Registrations closed
Note: This first series is only open for people living in the student housing of Droevendaal, but if it's going to be a success we might organise it more often. If you're not living in Droevendaal but you are interested in joining the sessions or in organising a similar series for your own organisation / community, please reach out to st.inspringtheater@wur.nl!
Labeling your mental situation: helpful or harmful?
Does your brain work different than what is "the norm"? Did you get diagnosed? Or don't you want to be diagnosed? How is it for you to (not) have a label on your mental situation? Do you think labels are helpful or harmful?
On July 8th we're organising a day to share experiences on how to live with or without a label. We're doing that while making use of participatory theatre techniques of the theatre of the oppressed. No worries, no theatre experience required.
Wednesday July 8th 11.00-17.00, Wageningen
