The Fair-Ground

Roll up roll up! Pay your money and play the game! Everyone has an equal chance in the Fair-Ground dont they? Or are some games rigged for a privileged few? Active Inquirys latest Forum Theatre play explores how the facade of fairness is used to cover up injustice and what we can do to challenge this.

The Workers Theatre are very excited to be hosting Active Inquiry. Active Inquiry are an arts company based in Leith, Edinburgh committed to creating exciting new theatre and arts projects with and for communities. They are particularly interested in the work of Augusto Boal and the Theatre of the Oppressed. Active Inquiry enables grassroots communities to make and use excellent theatre as a catalyst to uncover and challenge injustice. They believe in a Scotland in which grassroots communities engage with the arts and the democratic process, contribute to change which is both necessary and possible, and build a more just society.
