Performances
Playback Theatre offers an immediate, spontaneous and creative performance presentation.

We perform at conferences, away days, training, festivals and celebration, providing a fresh approach to debate, problem-solving, team-building, and group reflection.
“The way you attune to the stories is just beyond words.”
Workshops
Post-performance workshops offer more time to explore themes and ideas that have emerged in the performance. London Playback team members are skilled in creative facilitation, and we offer playback-based structures to support deeper discussion and sharing.
Examples from previous workshops include: strengthening teams, diversity and difference, managing conflict, deeper listening and communication skills, enhancing spontaneity and creativity.
“Playback Theatre expands the individual perspective and strengthens connections. ”
