Living Arts Playback Theater Ensemble: sponsored by the San Francisco Chapter
Join us for an evening of stories from your work or personal life: challenges, triumphs, and resilience. In this performance, your stories will take center stage, brought to life through movement, music, ritual, and spoken improvisation. Those who feel moved to share are invited to tell a story. Or simply witness one unfold. This is not just a performance—it is an interactive dialogue. As you watch your stories and the stories of your colleagues unfold on stage, we invite you to reflect on the challenges that have shaped your life. What solutions or human connections have helped you navigate life? What insights will you carry forward?
Through this unique, unscripted experience, we will share, listen, and engage in a transformative experience that bridges storytelling with personal growth. Whatever emerges, this performance will offer space for reflection, dialogue, and shared wisdom.
Theater Performance is free for all conference attendees to participate - no additional charge
