CARE: A Theatre of the Oppressed Festival
Four Days of Workshops, Performances and Community engagement in Galway
The theme for this year’s Theatre of the Oppressed conference is “Care”.
What gets lost when our society values money and productivity over people and the planet? Who and what slips through the cracks?
This year's Theatre of the Oppressed Festival brings together artists, activists, educators, and communities in Galway for four days of participation to explore what it means to care; For one another, for our communities, and for the planet we share.
The festival includes Deep dive workshops, Short workshops and performances that examine our broken care system while we explore the pathways to building something better.
