Anthropological Theatre

Anthropological theatre is a discipline that combines elements of anthropology—the study of human cultures—and theatre, using performance to explore, understand, and communicate cultural practices and social issues. It often involves collaboration with communities to create plays or performances that reflect their traditions, stories, and perspectives. This approach helps deepen cultural understanding, preserve indigenous knowledge, and foster dialogue across diverse groups. By blending ethnographic research with theatrical expression, anthropological theatre provides immersive, impactful ways to examine human diversity and shared experiences.
