What is Playback Theatre?
Playback Theatre is a form of improvisational theatre in which audience members
tell stories from their lives and then watch as actors and musicians enact them
on the spot using movement, music and words, but without script or rehearsal.
Playback Theatre is a wonderful way for people to share stories on common themes. Audiences are left with a better understanding of the issues that concern them as members of organisations, as co-workers or as part of a community, and with a greater sense of connection to each other and their common goals and struggles.
Playback is a particularly suited to conferences, workshops and other events that address social issues and for professionals who work in community and social welfare areas. It is also an excellent way to celebrate achievements and address workplace, team building and organisational change issues.
