Theatre and Creative Writing: Stranger Than Fiction

A 5-week workshop

Join Reading Rep Theatre for five creative workshops inspired by the story of Jekyll and Hyde. We will explore the story of the real-life person who inspired Jekyll and Hyde - Deacon Brodie, who was a gentleman by day and a thief by night.

Participants will then have the opportunity to create their own pieces of fiction using real life people as inspiration. The format will be open and created by the group and their interests. The group is open to all, from those new to the arts to more experienced creatives.

All our workshops 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.
