Resumo

To perform Playback Theatre effectively, practitioners learn the language of their hosts, live in the same dwellings, eat the same food, and take part in daily activities. Most importantly, Playbackers listen to stories and play these back. Meer's anthropological research in Cuba has been to locate an essential Cuban "we." She finds that her work and Playback are similar in motivation and mission, a teatro comunitario.
