We hope to accommodate as many of you as we can, but have limited space, so get your ticket below now! 

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.

Ctrl+Alt+Del - our upcoming playback theatre show

We reboot our our computers. Ourselves. Our dreams. Our relationships.

What is in our control? What is not? What are the alternatives? What can we delete? What do we reboot? What happens on reboot? What are the consequences of a restart? What is important to remember? Where do we go from here?

What stories do you recall? What would you like to share?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dates: May 23 (7:30pm), May 24 (3pm)

Venue: Toa Payoh Central Community Club Theatrette

Tickets from CtrlAltDel.Peatix.com or click the link at the bottom of the page!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a Playback Theatre show, where moments and stories are shared by the audience, and spontaneously enacted by the performers, using elements of music, movement, cloth and spoken scenes.

As with all Playback Theatre shows, there is no script. There is a theme however, and it is Ctrl+Alt+Del. Come join us and build community with stories!

With support from the National Arts Council and venue support from PAssionArts.

 

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!
