The Ledge Theatre Presents People's Playback

The Ledge Theatre Presents diverse storytelling every month on Sundays and we welcome to The Ledge Programming:

As audience members share moments from their lives and watch them embodied on stage, the heart and essence of their stories rise and lift us all. Over the course of the performance, after many voices have been heard, it reminds us of our common humanity; reveals different perspectives; promotes deep listening, welcomes any voice to be heard, and stimulates post-show dialogue and reflection.
