Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to profile a case study experience from a larger fieldwork project in Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) with fourth-and fifth-grade children (Saldafia 2005). One primary goal of the study was to explore how young people at the upper-elementary school levels responded to session content with Boal’s Games, Image Theatre, and Forum Theatre—techniques often described in print for adult participants but rarely for youth. The most important goal of the project, however, was to provide children opportunities through TO to explore how their personal oppressions, such as victimization from bullying, could be recognized and dealt with in the classroom and on the playground.
