We are Liberation Playback Theatre. We have been gathering monthly at the Brick House to share stories from our lives and honor each story by playing them back. We use movement, music, poetry and improvisation to act out each other’s stories. We have loved working and playing at the Brick House, with its lively caring community vibe.
We are growing at the speed of trust, developing around our real interests and inspirations and disabilities and skills and cultures and family structures and pets and hopes and needs.
And we are growing and will be performing for wider audiences in the (near?) future. Look out for us. And we look forward to hearing your stories!
This event is free of charge / by donation. Any donations go to support snacks for the event and the Brick House. Please email kaiajackson180@gmail.com if you are interested in participating and to discuss accessibility needs!
Note: “Playback Theatre itself was first developed by Jonathan Fox, Jo Salas, and the other members of the original company in 1975. In performances, audience members are invited to tell stories from their lives and watch as they are played back with action and music. The Playback Theatre method is now practiced in 70 countries worldwide to build dialogue, connection, and change.” From Hudson Valley Playback Theatre Company website.
This event is generously supported by Mass Cultural Council through the Montague Cultural Council grant.
The Brick House offers space for any community organization, individual, or group wishing to host programs that are in alignment with our mission to support individual, family and community well-being. For more information see our space rental page.
