Big Bang

9.8.-17.8.2016BIG BANG – Playback Theatre Gathering in Helsinki

You are part of big histories and small stories!

We invite you to our Big Bang! Come and make it unforgettable with us. We will meet under the theme of Big History. The gathering will be dealing with the big changes that are happening in Europe by telling stories. We are on the so called threshold moment. The world will never be the same after these big changes. You are welcome to share your thoughts, feelings, confusions and dreams. We will explore possibilities how to deal with these changes in a creative way. Let’s look to the future together and learn more about our great method.

We will have lots of international guests. Village Playback Theatre from NYC and Teater X from Stockholm are performing and many other experienced playbackers are facilitating home groups and workshops.

Address: Hämeentie 161, Helsinki
