Abstract

On April 11, 2021, The Ume Group Playback Ensemble, a branch of the New York City-based physical theatre company, The Ume Group (www.theumegroup.org), gave a public performance on the theme of “Identity.” This was only their second-ever public performance (and third-ever Playback Theatre performance in general). As part of the group’s commitment to rotating roles and leadership, this was also the first time conducting for the two co-conductors, Yokko & Jorge.
