I confess I heard about Boal two weeks before (I mean before) his death. I instantly thought in Freire. There were interesting articles in pagina/12 about him, I´ll try to find them (I didn´t save them) and post them here for us! :wink:

yes, we took a look at him in our theatre course, (five years ago - my how time flies). Loved what I read.
Theatre of the people to feel power and overcome tyranny.

One of his games that we played was dividing the class into 2, opposite walls. Line drawn in the middle of the room. Last person to cross the line was the winner. Slo mo, fascinating.
