Theater of the Oppressed

I found the Comparisons between Aristole's theater, Bretch's theater and the Theater of the Oppressed to give real insight to the underline goal of theater of the oppressed. I found the underlining goal of theater of the Oppressed to be very moving. The action of calling the audience to action and holding them responsible right there in the moment to me is very powerful. It is powerful because it is not a passive form of theater the audience is just as much a part performers.  

Here is the link to Augusto's Publish list of Games for actors and non actors

https://demos.be/sites/default/files/games-for-actors-and-non-actors.augusto-boal.pdf

In this pdf Augusto describes how to play many different games that engage the participants imagination, physical body, voice and many other aspects. The commonality in each of these is the inclusion of the ensemble as whole or the ensemble member. I looked this up because I was sure that in my time at calarts  I had encountered this method, but I wasn't sure when or if it was even described to have come from this background, I  found that I was correct.

Wondering

I wonder how this works in communities where the "spectators" are in actually the oppressors. is there then conflict or is this the start of creating change?
