Queer Playback Theatre Workshop

Submitted by janehoy on Tue, 2012-02-28 13:10

Playback theatre is improvisational theatre in which the audience tells their stories and the actors
re-enact them right then and there. Queer Playback was founded in early 2011 by Jane Hoy, Lorna Henry and Arnet Donkin for the LGBT community. It's often moving, sometimes hilarious and a great way to hear
our hidden and often untold stories. If you'd like to find out more about what we do in Queer Playback Theatre and want to learn some playback skills come along to our one day workshop on Saturday 24 March 2012.
