Summary:
Elected in 1992 to a term as Vereador (Councilor) on the Municipal Legislative Council by the people of Rio de Janeiro, dramatist and activist Augusto Boal took his theatre company into office with him. In 1994, Brazilian national elections are approaching, and Boal -- a year and a half into his term -- undertakes a daring and difficult experiment, overtly melding the concerns of theatre, therapy, and politics into The Theatre of the Oppressed.
