Schools, human rights groups, organizations that help the homeless, and disaster recovery groups have all hosted Playback performances. Playback Theatre began in upstate New York in 1975, and now there are troupes all over the world, including Germany, Australia, Britain, Japan, and Brazil.

That city struggles with racial and economic segregation, and earlier this year, Playback Memphis visited a community center that seeks to build bridges between different groups. We'll also hear interviews with Playback Memphis founder VIRGINIA MURPHY and troupe member BILL BAKER. Add Comment Post Title. 08/02/2011
Hi Folks, The fall is quickly approaching. Usually Synergy Playback takes a rest right about now, but not this summer. In July we had a great retreat and then switched gears to have an amazing time working with Chris Van Baeyer from Toronto, Canada doing a 2 day Playback extravanganza at at the ASCD conference. It was a great time working with a real master of the theatre arts/education form. It went so well we have been booked to come back in October. As we gear up for our show in fall we are considering doing stories in honor of the 10th anniver First Post! 06/07/2011
