Have you ever watched something and felt annoyed because of a character’s series of wrong choices that led to their tragic fate? And do you wish you could jump in and change their actions, helping them to have a better, happier ending?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine no more; you can do it with OUCRU’s first digital interactive Forum Theatre simulation<\/a>. Let’s find out how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a small village, a group of university student volunteers, including Tam, gathered here. They were given rusty objects to complete some tasks. Ignoring their hesitation, the management team insisted on using those tools, and disaster happened: Tam had a deep cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the video goes by, you would watch well-meaning local people trying to help by applying their home remedy, some unsterilized leaves, to the open wound, friends searching TikTok for uncredible medical advice, and delaying going to the clinic. As viewers, you can see all leading to the tragic outcome – severe tetanus, muscle spasms, and months in the ICU\u2014unfolding in slow motion. And the most important thing is, all are preventable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In conventional situations, all you can do is watch and feel helpless regardless of the urge to intervene. Here, you are in control.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to our first Digital Interactive Forum Theatre Experience<\/strong>, an online initiative designed to transform passive viewers into active problem solvers right on your screen anytime, anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Forum Theatre?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Originated from the participatory theater method, Forum Theatre breaks the “fourth wall” between the audience and the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

In our first Forum Theatre play, Small Wound Big Consequences, you will have opportunities to pause and make a critical decision: Will you step in to change the story?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not just an educational tool, Forum Theatre can be a community engagement asset.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally work as a real play; by digitalising the experience, we aim to simplify the setup and make this method more accessible and adaptable anytime, anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to participate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Step onto our digital stage:<\/strong> Step into the simulation and navigate Tam’s story from Part 1 through Part 5.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Choose to intervene, or not:<\/strong> See what happens when you step in versus let the narrative play out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Share your feedback:<\/strong> Tell us about your experience!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    What do you think about the digital interaction? Was the decision-making realistic? What would you improve?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your feedback will directly help our team refine this tool for youth and community engagement projects. Let us know here.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The digital stage is now yours.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
