Please join us under the tall trees for a community conversation through theatre! Our show includes the CCTA-commissioned play Brackendale by Elaine Ávila, plus YOUR stories about living in this rapidly changing world, enacted on the spot by our performing team of facilitator, actors, and musician. 

Hudson River Playback Theatre is a New Paltz, NY-based nonprofit ensemble founded in 1990 by Playback pioneer Jo Salas. HRPT has performed by invitation in New York City, Boston, Washington DC, Montreal, London, Frankfurt, and South Africa. Locally, we have performed in theatres, conferences, migrant labor camps, and much more.  Our longterm projects have included school performances addressing bullying, and “Immigrant Stories,” a series of over 100 performances for the Mid Hudson Valley’s immigrant community, funded by the Dyson Foundation. We have been presenting climate-themed interactive shows since 2009.
