Playback Theatre is based on oral storytelling traditions and moves freely between the mythic and the mundane. A participant from the audience sits in the "teller's chair" where their real-life story is "played back" by the actors. Improvisation, movement and music are used to create fascinating, funny, dramatic and deeply moving stories.

Playback is a form of theatre unlike any other. It changes lives and enriches communities. It is fun, daring; it can change the way you look at yourself and the world!
