About
"Improvising Real Life: Personal Story in Playback Theatre by Playback Theatre cofounder Jo Salas is the basic text used by new and seasoned Playback practitioners, trainers, and in university courses. The 20th Anniversary edition includes a foreword by Roberto Gutiérrez Varea of Theatre Without Borders and co-founder of the Performing Arts and Social Justice Program at the University of San Francisco. Entertaining and thoughtful, Improvising Real Life is illustrated with photos and real-life stories told in performances and workshops." -- Amazon. "In a Playback Theatre performance, audience members tell stories about their lives -- memories, dreams, tragedies, and farces -- and a team of actors improvises theatre pieces on the spot. First developed in 1975 in upstate New York, Playback Theatre is now practiced around the world, in theatres, schools, refugee camps, prisons, community centers -- anywhere there are people with stories to tell." -- Cover.
