Playback Theatre
Moments of our lives can be touchstones, full of power and significance. Playback Theatre transforms personal stories told by audience members into theatre pieces on the spot using movement, ritual, music and spoken improvisation. Sometimes a story becomes myth, sometimes a realistic enactment: some stories are tragic; others are funny or illuminating.
The Training
Workshop participants will learn the subtleties of the Playback Theatre form refine acting and improvisation skills and share in the often profound experience of hearing each other's stories and bringing them to life. The Playback process develops intuition, insight, creativity and effective communication. It also creates community and connection among people by honoring the dignity, drama and universality in their stories. This training is for actors, teachers, therapists or anyone interested in creating art from the specific and universal in our experience.
