Playback utilises improvisation and stories to create theatre that breaks down the barrier between actors and audience. The theatre is created spontaneously through collaboration between performers and audience resulting in a unique experience not possible in conventional theatre.

Audience members tell snippets or stories from their lives and the actors play the story back using movement, drama, and music. On the spot - no rehearsal, no planning - complete improvisation.  It’s startling, moving, and very often, very funny!

The experience is voluntary your particpation is welcomed and encouraged but not compulsory so shy audience members are welcome to sit back, relax and enjoy the drama unfolding in front of them...

Playback creates thought provoking theatre from all types of stories; at work, at conferences, at home and at play your stories make theatre that speaks, come and see how we do it!
