*Come for both the workshop and performance or just the performance! Workshop participants have the opportunity to perform for our audience of family and friends alongside Brave Practice members after learning Playback Theatre fundamentals. No one is required to perform if they want to just participate in the workshop. Feel free to make a note in your ticket registration if you are registering for the workshop, performance, or both.

Whether you are looking to practice courage on-stage or off, we're excited to listen deeply, share true stories, lean into community wisdom, and take some brave risks with you! No previous theatre experience is necessary to participate! Let's explore: What does bravery mean to you? When have you practiced bravery in your everyday life, in big and small ways? How can you cultivate the vulnerability necessary to do hard things like lead, learn, make mistakes, and maintain integrity and community accountability?

Brave Practice Playback Theatre Collective is a community resource for storytelling and deep listening. Founded in 2021 as a community engagement program through Window Seat, we are a collective of theatre artists who use Playback Theatre and other theatre-based techniques to foster connection, inclusion, and belonging locally. We serve a beautiful, diverse, intergenerational, and multicultural community within and connected to the South Sound region. With us, you'll practice empathy, express yourself, collaborate with others, and explore your own gifts and potential. Become familiar with techniques in Playback Theatre, a kind of improv theatre where people share true moments from their lives and others play them back on the spot.

This opportunity is open to community members who can actively participate and benefit from this experience in a community setting. Email us if you have questions about whether this workshop will be a good fit for you.

Cost

This workshop is supported by an Arts in Education grant from ArtsWA, with the goal of enriching local arts offerings and accessible community programming. Community donations are gladly accepted to support the continuation of this program. We encourage those who are able to make a contribution to support our ability to make this offering accessible to all.

Please register ahead of time if you are able so that we can determine how much food is needed.
