On Saturday April 1st, London Playback Theatre teamed up with Sparkle and Dark Theatre Company at Fisher Theatre in Suffolk to explore the subject of grief and loss.
Sparkle and Dark performed their award-winning physical theatre show, I AM BEAST, which they devised in response to the questions: What strategies do we use to escape when our present reality is too hard to face? What happens when the wilder and darker parts of our imagination take control and transform our realities? The creation of I AM BEAST was informed by the views and experiences of psychiatrists, drama therapists, neuroscientists and bereaved teenagers.
After the show, London Playback Theatre offered an improvised performance. We invited audience members to share thoughts, feelings and memories that I AM BEAST had provoked in them, and we spontaneously enacted their stories and reflections.
