Theatre Playback Theatre is a form of improvisational theatre created by Jonathan Fox in 1975. It gives audience or workshop members the opportunity to tell stories from their own experiences and watch the story enacted. The enactment is rich with movement, dialogue, and music, bringing the story to life.
Every human being is unique and offers a gift by setting their story before others.
Audience members and storytellers are comforted, excited, challenged, entertained and touched by seeing personal stories in this way - revealing the individuality and commonality of humanity . A handful of actors co-founded the company with Mr. Beare. HPT is dedicated to bringing Playback to schools, communities, corporate settings and private gatherings. HPT is a tool for transformation in personal community and professional life.
