Learn more about Legislative Theatre:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Using Theatre of the Oppressed methodology, particularly the technique of Legislative Theatre, our UCLA Prison Education Program professors and visiting scholar from the Center for the Theatre of the Oppressed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil facilitated incarcerated students along with university students to become part of a collaborative process of political education and engagement. Through their scene performances students invited their audience to imagine alternative futures to their scenes by investigating with the audience the reality and then embody change through their legislative proposals. These proposals were shared with the \u201cLegislative Brain Trust\u201d a group of experts and advocates in the criminal justice and legislative process, who facilitated discussion until reaching consensus. We now need to bring these proposals to our legislators.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
