What is playback back you might ask?
This is a form of improv where we listen to someone's brief story than enact use use improv structures to capture the emotions, characters, scenarios of the person and their experience with movement, metaphor, sound, and scenes. Read more below and let me know if you have any questions.
This is a great tool to use improv at this time of dialogue and change and listening as we look for answers, action, conversation, and healing during this time.
All are welcome! Beginners too! Invite a friend to playback! Let's keep spreading this powerful listening and understanding in the world to more! Always is the time!
Donation based, please support $5-30. As always please do not let suggested donation get in the way of coming.

True Story Theater’s mission is to build empathy, respect, and understanding across differences that divide us, through the honoring of true life stories.
True Story Theater is a nonprofit theater company that offers 50-75 improvisational performances and workshops a year in the greater Boston area. In addition to monthly public shows, we do many private events, with hospitals, universities, corporations, religious communities… with teen leaders, cancer survivors, activists, philanthropists, business leaders… as well as for weddings, birthdays, and many more.
In performances, volunteers from the audience are helped to share what’s important in their lives. On the spot, actors then portray the heart of what they heard using music, movement, and dialogue. From this simple interaction, people laugh, cry, share fresh insights, and bond. Our events create a respectful atmosphere where every voice can be heard and any story told — however ordinary or extraordinary, difficult or joyful. True Story Theater offers audiences fresh perspectives, deeper connections, and a renewed appreciation for our common humanity.
