Theater of the Opressed: Kazmiera Tarshis

Theater of the opressed exists to engage the audience and community in the perfrmance. It offers a vehicle for social change at a very accessible level.  I think the idea of asking the audience what the right choice is or to come up on stage and be a part of the performance is such an interestig cocept.

This seems to be a belief that many different theaters have in their own company beliefs section so it seems to be a relatively popuar idea within the theater world.

Gun violence in the Hollywood industry

Hollywood wants gun control for everyone BUT THEM! In the society where the nudity on the screen (sometimes in the theater, even at CalArts) is a huge issue, gun violence scenes are in many movies in the Hollywood industry and nobody care. Actors sign their contracts, do their characters, get their awards and then try to talk about gun violence and share their moral beliefs. Come on, stop being hypocrites and say NO! ,, The US is home to both the largest percentage  of guns per capita and the most influential entertainment industry on earth. And while there is ceaseless debate over the violence in our nation, there is no question that, on our screens, it is at an all-time high — no more so than in PG-13 films .  Since that rating was created in 1985, deceptions of guns  on screen has more than tripled. Movies are more violent ratings more lenient, and overall gun-use in the film has risen approximately 51% in the last decade." https://www.refinery29.com/201...
