In this studio, participants explore the political dramaturgy of emotions  – where theatre meets sociology. Emotions are movements, words, and gestures that shape how we live together. The ways we stand, speak, and relate enact democratic order. Conversely, emotions we suppress in public to sustain control can quietly erode democracy itself.
