GroundSpring Theatre is an improvisatory theatre show, where audience members’ real life stories provide the material for the actors to instantly transform into a theatrical event South African stories are a powerful resource. They bring people together to create a healing dialogue, allowing us to deeply experience our common humanity. This is GroundSpring’s commitment: to challenge familiar perspectives through our storytelling work, so that future possibilities can be imagined, and personal and social narratives can start to transform.

Our aims are to:

• Offer a platform for dialogue in a variety of contexts.

• Create a space that supports community building through the sharing of a resource that is common to all of us: our stories.

• Create a space for the honouring of memories through sharing them with one’s community.

• Celebrate the storyteller in each of us.
