About the Show:
We had a dream - to go beyond the barriers of disabilities as we create a team of Playback theatre performers. It sat with us for a while, growing, but was not getting a shape.
And then came the pandemic and the world, for all of us, became tiny windows on our digital screens. So do we hit pause on our dream? Or was this the time to reach out without the boundaries of space? We chose the latter and the dream now had a shape; a team. A team that did not let disabilities - physical, visual - come in the way of exploring their passion.
The journey is still on but like in all journeys there are some key moments. Here's one for this team - their second public performance and this time for a wider audience! The theme is one that gave birth to the dream in the first place - inclusion.
That's our story and we would love to hear your voice, on inclusion, through your real-life stories. Through this show, we invite you to share your personal 'inclusion' stories with us - of moments where you felt included and of those where you yearned to be, of moments where you could be an ally to someone and those moments where you could not. And then watch as the actors make your stories come alive, on-the-spot!
Playback Theatre - Magical, creative, thought-provoking, reflective, unscripted...just like life itself. A format of improvisational, interactive theatre where the actors use their creativity and skill, to present an engaging and dramatized retelling of the audience member's story on-the-spot. We have adapted it for the online space.
