What is a Playback performance like?

Playback Theatre is unlike traditional theatre – at a
Playback show you will encounter real life rather than a scripted
production. The actors improvise, guided and inspired by true life
stories contributed by the audience. In the course of an evening, the
individual’s experience is heard and honored, the personal is connected
to the universal, and an opportunity is created for new learning as a
result.

Admission to all performances is $10 adults & $5 for
students/seniors with no one turned away due to funds, if seating is
available. Doors open 30 minutes prior to performance. For more info,
