Your story, Our story, Red Thread Stories

Playback Performances

Playback Theatre requires us to step inside our own and other people’s stories and see things from different perspectives.

 

What is Playback?

 

Playback is improvised theatre based on people’s real life stories and experiences.

In dialogue with a skilled facilitator, audience members share experiences from their lives which are ‘played back’ by the actors and musician, whilst the rest of the audience watches and listens.

Conferences, forums and activities

“Telling someone about your experience breathes new life into it, moving it out of the inchoate swirl of unconsciousness into reality. It takes on form and allows us to examine it from all angles.”
