Sammendrag
This master’s thesis presents results of a research carried out in Coastal region in
Tanzania specifically Bagamoyo district in October 2015. The study aimed to answer
the question: What are the implications of introducing Forum theatre to the
Community theatre participants in Bagamoyo? It has been carried out as a practicebased-
research work where the materials are analyzed through a qualitative content
analysis and a narrative inquiry. This study came up with four topics that have been
analyzed and discussed in relation to different theories and context. The power of the
audience stands as the first topic followed by From spectator to spect-actor, The
aesthetics of Forum theatre and The joker – as a difficultator and a midwife. The
study discusses changes that would be needed so as people could get used to Forum
theatre, which is new to them as to how they are used to Community theatre.
