A Play Made By You

15-week course starting 8 Aug

Work with Rank & File Theatre, with support from Compass Recovery College, to write and perform your own stage play.

Participants can get involved at any point and in any capacity; from writing to set design to performance. We will be devising and premiering an original piece of theatre written by local people, asylum seekers, refugees, and those with lived experience of mental health challenges at South Street Arts Centre in November 2022.

Our work will be inspired by themes of connection through our individual experiences, human rights and the importance of health and wellbeing for ourselves and for the planet. The workshops will be spent devising, writing and rehearsing a theatre performance and engaging in high quality creative activities and cultural expression with new people from different backgrounds and communities. All levels of experience welcome.

Project launch and introduction: Mondays 8 & 22 August, 7-9pm

Weekly Workshops: September 7 - Nov 30: Wednesdays 3.30-5.30pm

 

All our courses are co-produced; designed and delivered by people with lived experience of mental health challenges together with mental health professionals. Our aim is for everyone to feel listened to in a safe space, with the opportunity to connect with others.
