- Abstract
The Living Histories Theatre Ensemble (LHTE) is a socially-engaged improvisational theatre collective exploring the intersections of oral history and performance within a community-university research alliance entitled, 'Life Stories of Montrealers Displaced by Genocide, War, and other Human Rights Violations.' This paper explores the LHTE's adaptations of Playback Theatre, and specifically the evolution of a technique called the 'Bridge', towards more fully reflecting values espoused within the Montreal Life Stories project.
