The DFL Playback Theatre Company is looking for musicians (instrument players) with a flair for improvisation to be part of the Magic of Playback Theatre.

Where: Floor 17, University Corner, WITS

Playback Theatre is a form of improvisational theatre where audiences are invited to tell stories from their lives that the actors and musician playback on the spot. The Drama for Life Playback Theatre Company, formed in 2008 applies this innovative form of theatre to address various social issues according to a community’s needs. Playback Theatre is especially suited to confronting South Africa’s challenging social issues as it has been effectively used in educational, therapeutic and social change settings in order to break down barriers and taboos around topics such as HIV/AIDS, gender, and issues of race, prejudice, and identity. One of the strongest features of Playback Theatre is that it allows marginalised voices to be heard through storytelling in a space that is modelled on the core values of empathy and community. Such an experience encourages communities to listen and engage on sensitive issues in a caring non judgemental environment, modelling essential life values through the magic of Playback Theatre!
