CREATIVE CUTS - Playback Theatre in Witta

Playback Theatre is an improvised form of community theatre that began 50 years ago in America and since then has grown around the world. Unlike most theatre, there is no script.

A conductor or facilitator gently encourages the audience to share their real-life stories. The actors and musicians then improvise them back “on the spot” using metaphor, movement and music. The group aims to honour people’s lives, and what results is heart-warming, magical and fun. 

Red Thread Stories, a playback theatre troupe based in Brisbane is coming to perform at Witta. One of their members has moved here and wants to share her love of this theatre form.  

The theme for this performance is ‘Stories That Shaped Us’, but all stories are welcome and you don’t even need to share a story. Appreciative listeners are also very welcome. 

So please join them for an afternoon of improvised performance, deep listening and community connection. 

Old Witta School Hall. Sunday November 30 from 3.30-5.30pm, cost $15/$10, supper provided. Booking essential through events.humantix.com/stories-that-shaped-us-witta or contact Jen 0405110955.
