In this Taste of Playback Workshop, participants warm up their intuitive capacity with playful games and ensemble exercises before learning the basic ritual and artistry used in several basic forms of Playback Theatre. The workshop is both a welcoming space to be in your embodied creative self, and a great first step if you’d want to do training to learn and/or perform Playback Theatre. Might you want to be part of a community of people bringing together respectful, empathetic and ritual artistry with acts of service for our community and beyond? Additional workshops are slated for 2025-2026!
The workshop is led by Chris Fitz and other members of the River Crossing Playback Theatre ensemble. Chris is a graduate of the School of Playback Theatre with more than 20 years honing the craft, informed by other methods including Conflict Mediation and Restorative Practices, Contact Improvisation, InterPlay, Theatre of the Oppressed and more. A graduate of the William Penn Performing Arts Institute (York, PA), he holds an MA and BA in conflict transformation studies.
