Join us for a day of playback theatre!  In this workshop we will play, awaken our senses, exercise ourselves as artists and humanitarians, practice compassionate listening, and learn the fundamentals of playback theatre. PT is an interactive, improvisational form used to illuminate life and incite dialogue. In playback theatre life stories are shared by audience members and then re-enacted spontaneously on stage by a team of actors and a musician. It is an educational and curative form of entertainment, now practiced worldwide in 50 countries. This workshop is recommended for performers, teachers, activists, social workers, writers, policy makers, astronauts, and everyone else! Bring water and wear loose clothing.

Prerequisite: None
