#20: Jori Linnamäki- Playback Theatre Forms

In the current episode of Playback Theatre Talks I am talking again with Jori Linnamäki (Jori Pitkänen).

Jori is a playback conductor and actor from Finland and he is also the former IPTN president. Jori just recently started his new (important) career as a father to a little baby girl :)

Jori and I will define and describe some familiar playback theatre forms and we will also answer the following questions-

-What is the process of matching a form to a story?
-What are Narrative forms and non-Narrative Forms?
-What is the role of short and long forms in a performance?
-How can one invent a form or adapt a form to one's needs?
-Are there any wrong forms?
-What form should we use when hearing a traumatic story?
-What should we do when we're making a mistake while playing a form?

If you are looking for more information about playback forms, here are some books that contain descriptions of several Playback Theatre Forms:
