Playback Theatre

Playback Theatre is a form of improvised theatre in which performers take personal experiences from audience members and turn those true stories into theatrical pieces. It is used around the world from public performances to private drama therapy sessions. Students will learn how to use their improv skills in fresh ways, while learning new tools they can apply to all of their improv work. Heightened listening and emotional connection converge in this artistically satisfying story-driven format that builds community for all involved.
