Portland Playback Theatre Company

About the Artist

Portland Playback Theatre Company is dedicated to honoring the countless stories that shape our lives. Our performances create a venue for individuals to share significant events and experiences, and through the art of improvisation, witness their immediate enactment. In this way, the story "tellers" come to recognize that they are not alone, that their stories matter, and that they are part of a larger community of empathic witnesses who recognize both the unique and the universal within us all. PPTC is available for commissioned performances in a variety of settings such as conferences, festivals, hospitals, prisons, classrooms and public performances. The form has proven very effective for team building within corporate environments. The experience of playback helps foster empathy and compassion within any community.
