I was feeling the joy for the human connection in the room.” Joan Nelson, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Marin Social Concerns Chairperson “I’m a big fan of improvisational theatre but didn’t know what to expect from Playback.  I was a “teller” at two performances.  At the first performance I laughed and at the second I cried.  Both experiences knocked my socks off.”  Allan Blau, Attorney at Law “I felt the earth move even though it didn’t register on the Richter scale.  I laughed.  I cried.  It was everything you want in a night of improv.  These actors are magical.”  Nika St. Claire, Program Director, Alameda Family Services “I was surprised and delighted.  What an extraordinary and entertaining evening! The rare talent of the actors resulted in a delightful and soulful bonding.”  Deborah von Bolschwing, Psychologist “How in the world one performance can be exhilarating, entertaining and also be a transformational experience was proved possible at the Bay Area Playback Performance.  I can’t wait for more.”  Esther Blau, R.N. “The actors pull various emotions out of the viewer like a clown retrieving a trail of scarves from his mouth.  Risk taking, Energetic, Whimsical.”  Nicole Katler, Psychotherapist and Musician "Best Bets" Marin Independent Journal Winner, 2007 -2009 Marin Arts Council Grants Bay Area Playback: Selected Performance Venues Public Performances: Open Secret Bookstore                               2011 Belrose Theatre                                2006 - 2010 O’Hanlon Center for the Arts       2005,2008,2009 Larkspur Café Theatre                       2006, 2007 Peacock Gap Country Club                          2006 Commissioned Performances: Palliative Care Nurses Annual Retreat,                   Jewish Family and Children Services             2011 American Society of Group Psychotherapy     2006 and Psychodrama-64th Annual Conference.
