Playback Theatre is an original form of improvisational theatre that invites true stories from the audience, and re?enacts these with artistry & respect as spontaneous improvisation.

The performance is co?created with the audience. Since the first Playback Theatre Company in 1975, this remarkable form has mushroomed around the world with community theatre groups as well as professional ensembles performing in a multitude of social, educational, therapeutic and corporate contexts.
