A Stage to Perform

We work in partnership to develop work that supports our values of being:

  • Inclusive - working at the grassroots and celebrating diversity.
  • Interactive - involving communities throughout the creative process.
  • Imaginative - finding new ways to engage with vital issues.

We believe in the transformative power of theatre and the arts to all our lives and the importance of giving people a voice.

Creating a real relationship with the communities in which we work is at the heart of what we do. Our work is particularly developed with and for marginalised young people.
