About this event
When friends, family members, or colleagues hold different political views from ours, what holds us back from opening up dialogue? For those of us who have had good experiences with this, what has helped? Using Playback Theatre, we’ll learn from each other. All perspectives and feelings are welcomed and respected.
Does your work involve bridge-building across differences? Come get a taste of how this form of spontaneous, embodied empathy, practiced by theatre companies around the world, can be an effective way to build connections.
True Story Theater’s mission is to promote social healing through theatre by building empathy, respect, and understanding in the honoring of true life stories. Volunteers from the audience are invited and helped to share what’s important in their lives. Actors listen deeply then spontaneously transform the stories into theater, portraying the heart of what they heard using dialogue, movement, music and song.
