Appreciation Day (14/3/2015)

We started this last year, as a way to show appreciation to our dear family and friends, who have supported us in our Playback journeys. 

We know Playback takes a lot of time and attention away from our loved ones, and we want to say a big "Thank you" to all of you. =) 

This year, we also invited other playback friends, to come and enjoy a simple meal, and to do playback for one another. 

We hope to do this every year, and to invite more and more playbackers to join us!

Thank you for your open hearts and spirits in exploring Playback with us! Do enjoy the photos below and see you in April!

First Open Rehearsal of 2015!

Hello everyone!  

Tapestry Playback Theatre is back with our first Open Rehearsal of 2015! 

Join us for our Open Rehearsal from 7pm to 9pm on 28th February, at the Toa Payoh Central Community Club Dance Studio.

Come and explore Playback Theatre, and have a chance to practise the different roles like the musician, the actor or the storyteller! 

If you are at all curious about what this form of community theatre is all about, come and join us! 

We hope to accommodate as many of you as we can, so do register here for the limited spaces!

This event is free, but we hope you can help support our practice with a small donation. 

Thank you and see you soon!

Playback Theatre. The power of stories. Any story. All stories. Someone shares a moment, and the performers will playback it back, with movement, sound, music, cloth and embodiment. Any life moment is played - happy or sad, hilarious or humdrum. It can produce change, new insights and feelings, and even transformation, through the atmosphere of affirmation, creativity and reflection.

This event is supported by Toa Payoh Central Community Club and PassionArts.

A Pair of Feelings.

What is your Maybe If?

3 solos. That wail in the box was unforgettable.

That moment, when we're all connected to one another. That moment, when we're connected by a story one of us shares. That moment, when there is no other.
