Intro to Playback Theatre!

Past event
Sep 30, 2018, 4:30 to 6 PM

Hello Community!

I am excited to be offering an introductory Playback Theatre workshop at The Everything Space in Montpelier. I have been studying this community theater form for two years and have been astounded by its potential for personal and social healing.

Playback Theatre is a form of improvisational theater in which the audience or group members tell stories from their lives and watch them enacted on the spot. In this workshop, everyone will have the opportunity to become both tellers and actors. We will play improv games, practice listening with our whole bodies, explore a variety of Playback Theatre forms, and learn and grow together through this community building practice.

Playback Theatre is used around the world to provide forums for an exchange of diverse experiences and to help create deeper cultural understanding and heal traumatic experiences from a personal to global scale.

Whether you have experience improvising or acting or the idea of performing pushes the edge of your comfort zone, this art form is for you! Playback is a citizen's theater, offering a rich and accessible experience as we witness one another, raise our collective consciousness, and weave our stories together through our bodies.

Please wear clothes you feel comfortable moving in.

September 30th 4:30-6:00pm
$10-$25 sliding scale
