Come join us at this Playback Theatre show to share and
listen to stories and be enchanted by the spontaneous
enactment of the performers.

Playback Theatre is an improvisational theatre where
individual voices are honoured and communities built
through personal stories.

An interactive event. An improvisational form. A community
theatre engagement. A Playback Theatre performance.
In Playback Theatre, the audience is invited to share
moments and stories triggered by the theme. Performers
will then spontaneously enact them in short dramatic
vignettes, using elements of cloth, music, movement, and
spoken word.

Watch and listen as your stories come to life with
movement, word, music and cloth!

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.

Tapestry's Appreciation Night 2016

Gratitude. 
Tapestry's annual Appreciation Gathering for family and friends. 
Stories.
Connecting another random group of people. 
Community.
When it's no longer random that we come together.

We started this annual affair 3 years ago, to take the time and thank our family and close friends who made sacrifices as we answered the call of Playback.
Since then, it's become a cosy night of food, drink and playback, and a great way to kick off the year!
Our newest recruits working together!

Happy birthday to the January babies!

So much love in the room!

A mix of old and new!

Playing games before we start.

Hanging on. =)
