Community Social Psychology (CSP) seeks to develop psychosocial interventions that contribute to the suppression of social inequalities within our reality. As well as CSP, the Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) put forward an artistic and political activity committed to social reality transformation. We aim to present possible associations and contributions from the Theatre of the Oppressed to the field of CSP, highlighting lived through events concerning the gender oppression still experienced by countless women within Brazilian society. A narrative literature review was undertaken in order to contextualize central dimensions of TO, which may favour the practice of psychologists in situations of exploitation and oppression. We consider TO as a method and a powerful tool for a CSP praxis committed to the transformation of society towards political and human emancipation.
